Thank you for viewing. Shinobue (Japanese bamboo flute) - Classical Tuning - Key of Five (G) Tenchi (top and bottom) wrapped with rattan Smoked-style finish Coating: Cashew lacquer Inner tube painted black Total length: 460mm Thickness near the utaguchi (mouthpiece): 20mm I have started making Shinobue flutes. The flutes I make are based on the flutes of a famous flute maker in Chiba Prefecture. I use bamboo from Minamiboso, Chiba Prefecture. I am making Shinobue flutes with a slightly unique atmosphere. I tried to create a smoked atmosphere with urushi (lacquer). I am making Shinobue flutes under the name "Namiichi - Wave One". I am listing flutes that are easy to play, from the basic notes to the high register.
