We have applied our expertise to the fullest to finish it in the best possible condition.\u003cbr\u003eThis is a top-quality Jiuta shamisen that has everything a shamisen should have. It is an item that is rarely available, whether new or used. It is a very rare item. We would like to sell it for a higher price, but as it is a used item, we have kept the price down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs you can see in the photo, the entire neck has a beautiful \"tochi\" (submerged tochi) pattern, and the wood quality is very hard and excellent. It is the highest grade of Koki wood, so good that nothing better can be found. It has a top-level density.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is almost in an unused condition, so it is very clean overall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tuning pegs are made of genuine ivory with chamfered edges, and they are also in a near-new condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis shamisen would currently be worth approximately 2,000,000 yen or more as a new item in a retail store.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is a Komochi Ayasugi body. It retains a cleanliness similar to a new item. The color of the body is as shown in the photos. The height and slope of the \"ha\" (bridge position) have also been inspected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough it has been in someone's possession before, so we are classifying it as a used item, you may consider it as a new-old stock item.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the skin, we have applied premium front yotsukawa and back inukawa (normally 85,000 yen). In Tokyo, just the equivalent skin application would cost 100,000 yen. It produces a very delicate and beautiful tone. This is truly a Kinsabo shamisen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRegarding accessories, we have attached all new items so that you can use them comfortably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOverall, there are no noticeable scratches, and it is in a beautiful condition for a used item, but as it is a used item, if you are concerned about minor scratches or color unevenness, we would appreciate it if you would consider a new shamisen.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease feel free to contact us if you have any questions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs we explain on our \"Shamisen Knowledge and How to Choose\" page, we generally do not recommend used shamisen (from auctions, etc.). However, in recent years, we have received many inquiries such as \"Can you buy my shamisen?\" and \"Do you handle used shamisen?\". Therefore, we have established our own very strict assessment standards, and we decided to purchase only shamisen that meet these standards and sell them as used shamisen.\u003cbr\u003eBy setting strict purchase assessment standards, it is difficult to handle (prepare) a large number of used shamisen, but we will provide items that can be cherished for a long time even if they are used. Of course, we will responsibly handle necessary repairs such as regular skin replacement and tuning peg adjustments, as well as after-sales service after purchase.\u003cbr\u003e*Even after maintenance on necessary parts, used shamisen may have minor scratches or color unevenness, so if you are concerned about this, please consider a new shamisen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e◇Antique Dealer's License No. 931010001749\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"和楽器市場·新館","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47889828708505,"sku":"WKT-TS066","price":585000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0527\/4281\/5897\/files\/202606081.jpg?v=1780913450","url":"https:\/\/wagakkiichiba-sinkan.com\/en\/products\/wkt-ts066","provider":"和楽器市場·新館","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
