17-string

17-String Koto
This is a 17-string koto for practice.
(Approx. length 210cm x thickness 10cm x width 30cm)
I used it for warming up before concerts, as having a 17-string koto at home allows for practice.

The wood grain of the 17-string koto is beautiful.
There are scratches on the bridges and writing with a marker in two places.
Two strings have chalk marks.

The strings are made of pure silk, but
due to tightening and rubbing against the bridges, they are worn and
some parts show fraying.

Included are a handle, 17-string bridges (felt is deteriorated), a 17-string koto stand (torii stand), and a handmade quilted koto bag, all of which are used.

Please note that it will be shipped via Tanomeru-bin (Mercari's shipping service).
