This shamisen is overseen by the chairman of the Tokyo Japanese Munic Instruments and Commerce Union, which is made up of koto and shamisen manufacturers based in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
In a world where shamisen made by Japanese shamisen artisans often cost over 500,000 japanese yen, this shamisen was developed with the aim of making the shamisen's sound accessible to everyone. It simplifies the shamisen's structure and is two-thirds the size, making it easier to handle. It was even performed at a festival in Tokyo.
This shamisen are made from natural wood.
The Surface is unpainted wooden finish.
The body of this shamisen is covered with a strong and flexible "film synthetic paper" called YUPO, which was developed using a manufacturing method that has earned numerous related patents in Japan and overseas.
※YUPO was developed as a "dream paper alternative to general paper" for the purpose of "protecting forest resources".
