This is a high-quality Shinobue (bamboo flute) from the Shishida Honke, Koten-cho "Takeho" in the key of 4. Perfect for local hayashi (traditional Japanese ensemble) performances. *This is Koten-cho (for hayashi). It is not a Doremi-cho or Uta-yo (for singing). Retail Price: ¥46,200 (tax included) High notes/Very high notes: ◎ Low notes: ◎ I have used many Shinobue flutes from Otsuka Takekanki, and they are known for their ease of producing "high notes/very high notes." The mouthpiece and finger holes are relatively small, making them easy to play for beginners, intermediate players, and women. Takeho is especially recommended. Total length: Approximately 46.5cm Outer diameter near the mouthpiece: Approximately 22mm Outer diameter of the tube end: Approximately 17mm Mouthpiece: Approximately 11mm x 13mm ← For beginners and intermediate players ———————— Shishida Takeho Horikomi Horikomi uses only high-quality bamboo that has been aged for over 5 years. It is a high-quality Shinobue with traditional rattan wrapping that serves as both a crack prevention measure and a design element. The flute is made with high-quality, chamfered rattan, which is wrapped after the bamboo has been carved with grooves, making it comfortable to hold and easy to play. The inside is coated with genuine lacquer, and ebony is attached to the head. This is a masterpiece that the flute maker is particular about. ———————— *This is Koten-cho (for hayashi).
