High-quality rosewood Tsugaru-jamisen, a futozao (thick-necked) shamisen. Although it is a used item, it has been carefully maintained by a skilled craftsman. This shamisen can be used with confidence not only for practice but also on stage. The neck thickness is 1 sun (approx. 3.03 cm), and due to the density of the neck, it is heavy (2.9 kg), allowing you to enjoy the powerful and deep tones that are characteristic of Tsugaru-jamisen. It has been fully maintained (both sides of the skin replaced, pegs adjusted, neck camber corrected), so you can start playing immediately if you have a bachi (plectrum). The entire neck has a slight "tochi" (grain pattern that appears on high-quality rosewood), and this shamisen can be used with confidence on stage. Recommended for all who love Tsugaru-jamisen. This is not a "kin-boso" shamisen (a type of shamisen). The neck thickness is 1 sun (3.2 cm), and it is a dense and heavy neck.
