This is a honkan (main pipe) hichiriki used in gagaku (Japanese court music). I purchased it, but as I was given another good honkan, I am selling this one unused. I will include an adjusted roze (reed) for beginners (not new). Made by Kobo Heiraku, it is a new pipe made of white bamboo with rattan binding and cashew lacquer. Please note that the pitch and tone of the hichiriki can vary depending on the player, playing style, reed, seme (tuning), and diagrams. How about it for those who are learning the hichiriki for the first time, or those who want to upgrade from a plastic pipe to a honkan? Also, for those who are allergic to real lacquer, or have other allergies, this is cashew lacquer, so it is safe. It is a new pipe, and the case is also new, so please nurture it yourself. In addition, it seems that the pipes alone are sold for around 40,000 yen at musical instrument stores and Shinto supply stores. ※ As mentioned above, if you have any doubts, including subjective opinions, please refrain from purchasing. Due to the high value of the transaction, please be responsible for your own decisions, with no returns or claims accepted.
