Although it is blacked out, the wood grain of the heart (neck shaft) allows us to identify it as shitan (rosewood). We estimate it to be either Indian rosewood or Brazilian rosewood, but we cannot identify the specific origin, so please understand. The skin is genuine leather on both sides, and the tension is slightly strong, as you can see in the photos. If it is a genuine leather covering on a Yunaa, the resale value is high, so it might be good to have it for your collection or to try out. The karakui (tuning pegs) are very thick, which matches the face of the Yunaa and looks very cool. It features the crisp, high-pitched sound typical of a Yunaa, and we believe it is a sanshin with the potential to further develop its sound. Regarding the condition and scratches: There is a dent on the tip of the ten (top) that can be seen if you look closely, but only the paint is peeled off. The toui (neck) has a slight twist, and when plucked very hard, the sound seems to get slightly muffled, but this can be improved by adjusting the bu-ate (bridge). There is a small hole in the center of the skin on the back of the chigaa (body) that is also barely visible, but this is not a defect. It is a nail hole from when the snake's raw skin was stretched and dried on a board, so there is no problem with the quality. Remarks: We have cleaned it, applied rosin to the karakui, and replaced the strings before listing it. Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for shop-level quality or are overly concerned about details.
