    This is the decorative gold-plated sleeve and fitting that attaches to the dou and end of the nakagosaki. If you're building your own Tsugaru Shamisen and want to have all the finishing touches which high-end Tsugaru Shamisen have in Japan, you'll want this! (Know that it's not required for a shamisen, but rather increases the level of fanciness)

    This fukuro intended for storing a shamisen which has been disassembled. It's pretty cool and I used to use it all the time, but it's not necessary if you're already storing the disassembling shamisen in a case.

    This is one of my favorite types of cases to use when I travel locally, whether it be walking or driving to a gig, or taking the bus to San Jose to lead my group shamisen class. It is so light and easy to carry on my back, and offers just enough foam protection where I can feel at ease if it gets lightly bumped.

    The Kase is the equivalent of a capo for the shamisen. It's quite a cool accessory, although isn't commonly used by most shamisen players.
