For Kissy - Classical Style Shinobue (5-hole)

Dear Kissy, thank you for your patience. Please review and confirm.

[Shinobue, 5-Hon Choshi, Classical Tuning]

As requested, this was made with a thinner tube. It should play with a gentle breath.
Please note that if you blow with more force than necessary, the sound may flip, so we ask for your understanding.

Carving, Hon-Jyu Silk Wrapping

The bamboo surface skin was removed, treated with cosmetic finishes such as pine soot, red iron oxide, and persimmon tannin, and finally finished with three coats of wipe lacquer (cashew lacquer).

*As this is a classical tuning, it is not tuned to Do-Re-Mi. It is suitable for playing traditional Japanese music (Ohyashi).

This item is a [5-Hon Choshi], but please note that it will have the tone of a [4-Hon Choshi] if it were a Shishita classical tuning flute.
