No. 18 Super Loud! Repeat Customers Galore! Owara Kaze no Bon Kokyu Bridge - Maple & Tortoiseshell

This is an original koma (bridge) for the kokyu, made for the Owara Kaze no Bon festival in Yatsuo, Toyama Prefecture, famous for the Etchu Owara Bushi folk song. (Can also be used for other genres of kokyu)
(Special introductory price / One-of-a-kind item)

Most commercially available koma are thick to maintain strength, but neglect the crucial sound quality. This is an extremely thin, high-resonance koma.
It also features a function on the back to prevent cracking, significantly reducing the risk of damaging the koma during attachment and removal.

Polished finish for a sparkling shine! ⭐︎

Made with exquisite spalted maple and exquisite tortoiseshell!
Due to the extreme thinness and the labor-intensive process of making this koma, the next arrival is undecided!
First come, first served!

Appearance and sound are both top-notch! Please, please try it!

*This listing is for the koma only.
