16.Vintage Tsugaru Shamisen

A supreme masterpiece, personally selected by Masahiro Nitta.
This Tsugaru shamisen, crafted from the finest kouki (redwood) and designed as a professional-grade three-piece foldable instrument, truly embodies the pinnacle of craftsmanship and artistry.
Its delicate, shimmering high tones sparkle with elegance, while the midrange resonates with a rich warmth and depth. The powerful, well-grounded low tones add a robust foundation, creating a soundscape that feels alive with every note.
Thanks to its remarkable volume and presence, this shamisen is especially recommended for performers who wish to project their sound boldly and captivate the audience with overwhelming power.

Please rest assured: in some photos, the body (dō) may not be attached, and only the neck (sao) is shown. However, when delivered to you, the shamisen will always include a body fitted with brand-new synthetic skin.
Additionally, any instruments shown in photos with torn skins or using traditional dog skin will be re-skinned with new synthetic skin before shipping.
If you'd like to check the sound beforehand, please feel free to watch the demonstration videos.

Each instrument is meticulously packed with the utmost care to ensure it arrives safely and beautifully preserved.
For those seeking a lifelong musical companion — an instrument that will move your spirit and illuminate every stage you stand on — this is a Tsugaru shamisen worthy of your journey.
