This list has only Azuma-Sawari, and the musical instrument on the image is not included.

This is the device that allows you to adjust the buzzing effect on a tsugaru or minyo shamisen.
In traditional Japanese music, sawari is the name of a buzzy sound quality, or timbre, that is often found in and/or expected of certain traditional stringed instruments.
In the shamisen, for example, the sound quality is produced by the 1st, or lowest string, which is purposefully laid lower than the rest of the strings at the nut of the instrument.
This placement of the string allows the string not only to have a characteristic buzzy timbre, but it also allows it to resonate sympathetically when the other strings are plucked.
In modern versions of the instrument, the neck of the shamisen is equipped with an adjustment device that allows the player to raise or lower the 1st string at will, thereby adjusting the quality of the "sawari."
The device itself is often called "Azuma-sawari" by shamisen players and makers.

Though low-end shamisen don’t include the Azuma-sawari device, it still has the sawari buzzing effect.
Why spend more on an Azuma-sawari?
Well, the advantage is that you can adjust the amount of buzz created.
Switching string gauges or tunings require adjustment to the Azuma-sawari for maintaining the cleanest buzz, which can’t be done on a low-end shamisen.
