Thank you for visiting. This is a shamisen 【third string】. It is used for 【Tsugaru-jamisen】 and is a thick string. It is not a regular tetron string, but rather a 【radiation-irradiated string】, making it a step up in quality. It is not a used item, but 【new】, so there is no aging or deterioration. The price includes shipping, so discounts are not possible... However, ・If you purchase multiple items ・If you purchase with other items We will 【offer a discount】, so we would appreciate it if you could 【comment in advance】. If you have any 【opinions or questions】, please feel free to comment on anything.
