A high-quality, rosewood nakazao shamisen body with a hard case. This shamisen is considered a high-grade instrument. It is approximately 100 cm long and 2.6 cm wide. The body is a 5-rin size, komochi ayasugi-do. A considerable amount of money was spent at a traditional Japanese instrument store on: - Replacement of both dogskin faces (for practice) - Kamberi repair - Reapplication of surface lacquer - Adjustment of the tuning pegs Therefore, it is ready to use. It can be disassembled into three parts. Gold is embedded inside. The tuning peg hardware is also high-grade, with a K9 stamp. The kamberi repair has made it gleaming. The reapplication of lacquer has given it a beautiful shine. The tuning pegs are high-grade rosewood. The condition is also good. A case that was at home will be given as a bonus. Please understand that the price is lower than at a traditional Japanese instrument store. If purchased at a traditional Japanese instrument store, the price would be more than three times higher for a used one, and more than six times higher for a new one. This was made with the intention of making a high-quality shamisen more accessible. Please purchase from a traditional Japanese instrument store if you are concerned about minor details. This is a one-of-a-kind item due to the cost of production. - Type: Shamisen body - Case: With case - Number of strings: 3 strings - Material: Rosewood
