Thank you for viewing! I'm clearing out my workshop, so I'm putting this up for sale. It's a stripped-down 5-string taishogoto, but I'm listing it as a percussion instrument. You play it by hitting the strings with a bamboo stick. Hold the bamboo stick in your right hand, and use your left hand on the slide (touch) bar. Searching for "berimbau" might give you a better idea. I won't go into a lot of detail because it's too much to explain, but if you're a fan and this piques your interest, would you consider buying it? Thank you! Box Berimbau KOGA 5-string Size: 66cm x 12.5cm x 3.5cm thick Included: Bamboo stick, touch bar wooden piece *It sounds best with a 9v battery, so I'll include one, haha! Shipping is included in the price. ❣️Eco-Mercari shipping is welcome!❣️ For those who appreciate this and understand the price, thank you!
