To use, put both the "Manyo Desiccant Pouch" and “Manyo: Advanced Moisture Control” sheet inside a plastic bag in order for the pouch to effectively remove moisture from the sheet. -

This case can hold three koma (specifically three koma with an average width of 6mm.) Any Koma Case with "Used" in the title is in used condition (likewise, any Koma Case with "used" NOT in the title is in brand new condition) and it's style varies slightly, although they will also easily hold three koma. -

This is a beautiful second-hand Tsugaru Shamisen with prominent tochi…This is a beautiful second-hand Tsugaru Shamisen with prominent tochi figuring on the sao and genuine vintage solid zouge itomaki fitted to this tenjin. The sao is highly polished with an oil-finish, and overall this instrument is very high quality. This shamisen is practically in brand new condition, but the price has been lowered due to the following points.
- The lightest amount of wear on the sao topside. No actual kanberi wear, but just the faint indentations from wound strings rubbing against the highly polished surface. The previous owner either had a very light touch, or almost never played it.
- There are a few scratch-like dents on the base of the saruo (shown in picture gallery). I'm not sure how it was caused, but seems like something metallic may have been accidentally pressed against the wood.
- A few light scuffs on the dou.
- This shamisen was polished with an excessive amount of migako (polishing powder). Migako is an essential material for traditionally polishing shamisen to a beautiful shine, but if too much is applied, the pores of the wood become filled with the white powder. The white-filled pores are noticeable in both the tenjin and dou.

Note: Plastic koma are known for not sounding as good as koma made from bamboo, kouki, or anything else. We're offering it for those who specifically require it for nagauta style, but if you aren't formally pursuing that style, I'd highly recommend choosing any other koma. -
