The product is a 2.9 F# Jinashi Shakuhachi with a length of 86.5 cm, a mottled brown color, and a bore size of 23 mm at the root end. Made of bamboo, this advanced-level instrument features one-piece construction, offset holes, and a natural finish. Originating from Japan, this Japanese Hanko brand Shakuhachi has a bell diameter of 6 cm, making it a unique and authentic musical experience for musicians looking for a traditional folk and worldwind instrument. This is a beautiful instrument and is rather heavy compared to other shakuhachis. It has an inlay piece in the utaguchi and a natural finish that compliments the unusual coloring. I have listed this as “open box “ simply because I had to take out of the box for pictures…it is in perfect condition. Please check out all pictures as they are part of the description and ask questions before purchasing. I have to add a handling fee to shipping costs because eBay requires a signature on items costing more than a certain amount and that cost is significant.

Thanks for looking…offers welcome and considered!!!
