Thank you for viewing. This is a compact koto, the "Bunkagoto" by Zen-On. I purchased it several years ago and only practiced with it about 2-3 times. After that, I carefully stored it at home. It's smaller than a standard-sized koto, making it easy to handle and doesn't take up much space. It's the perfect instrument for those who want to start playing traditional Japanese instruments. 【Condition of the Item】 • Usage: Used briefly, about 2-3 times. • Storage: Stored in a place away from direct sunlight at home. There are no major scratches or cracks, and it's in overall good condition. 【Accessories】 • Dedicated Cover: While a case (hard or soft) is not included, I will provide a cover to protect the strings and the ryuto and ryubi. It has a beautiful traditional Japanese pattern, like a kimono. The thick fabric is ideal for protecting the instrument from dust and damage during storage. • Koto Bridges (Kotoji): Only 11 are included. Please purchase additional ones from Amazon or similar retailers. • Other: The string adjustment tool (handle) and koto picks are not included, so please prepare these separately. 【Shipping】 As there is no case, I will carefully wrap the instrument in bubble wrap (cushioning material) and pack it in a cardboard box for careful shipping.
