This is a custom-made, brand new item purchased here a few months ago. It's a wooden sanshin. The body is made of wood instead of being covered with skin. (Cloth is adhered to the wood) It has hardly been played. It was displayed as decoration. It's a beautiful item with no stains or scratches. Since it's a wooden sanshin, the sound is similar to a guitar, with a deep, low tone, and not very loud. You can also produce high notes depending on how you play. Recommended for those who are thinking of trying the sanshin, or those who want to practice the sanshin quietly at night. For practice or leisure. With its Okinawan design, it would also be suitable as interior decoration for shops, or as a gift. It also seems to require no maintenance. The color of the neck is reddish-brown. Size: Total length approximately 79cm Fret position stickers are attached to the neck, but they can be easily removed. (Photo 8) * Sanshin body only. Case is not included. * The uma (bridge) will be detached from the sanshin and included. * Shipping will be in a cardboard box. * We are sorry, but we cannot offer a price reduction. We would appreciate it if you would consider purchasing at the current price.
