There may be some small scratches on the used item, but there are no issues with playing.

The neck of a shamisen neck gradually wears down as it is played.

In addition to the neck, there are other parts of the shamisen that deteriorate over time.

For this reason, used shamisen must always be repaired.)

[2] What is Ayasugibori?

It is a technique that improves acoustics by adding a fine pattern in the body.

This technique is not used for practice shamisen, but only for high quality shamisen.

Please see picture.

[3]--Are the Synthetic Skin ?---

Traditionally, shamisen skins are made from cat or dog skins.

However, these animal skins tear easily and need to be replaced every two years or so, even if they do not tear.

It would be nice if there were craftsmen in your country who could replace the skins, but this is rare.

You will have a hard time.

This shamisen is covered with an Synthetic skin that does not tear easily.

The sound is not bad, and you don't have to worry that the skin might tear.

(Of course, if you have a craftsmen nearby, we can replace the skins with animal skins.)
