    All you hear are warnings not to buy inexpensive bamboo Shakuhachi..
  

*by M***I on Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2022*

If you watch any number of videos on what not to buy as a first shakuhachi, an inexpensive bamboo one from an online retailer will top the list of things to avoid. But I wanted real bamboo as an upgrade from PVC, and took a chance on this one.Well, it arrived and out of the box, it looked very nice. It is one piece with no joint, and that helps to keep costs down. The blowing edge does not end on a node, so it's not traditional in that way. It's another way to save costs as either having a joint or looking for a bamboo plant with the 7th node ending right at 1.8 would be expensive. The utaguchi inlay is nice and looks well done.But, the most important part is playability and being tuned, particularly for new players. And I found that this instrument was tuned quite well and my tuner gave me pretty accurate readings for each note in otsu and kan. I find it much easier to play than the PVC one. My instructor checked it out too and said it's a very decent instrument, and was surprised to hear I got it on Amazon.Finally, you just can't beat the price. If they are all as good as this one, they are a real bargain for a new player to build some skill on and grow with. Give one a try, and don't believe everything they say on youtube! But also, do understand that this is not an easy instrument to play and if you're brand-new many struggle just to get the first sound from the flute. Don't give up, it's worth it.

    Beautiful Shakuhachi with a personal note
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2022*

I was nervous to buy a shakuhachi - as I wanted a playable and professional one that was not too expensive. I found this shakuhachi to be very nicely made and (now that I'm able) produces some very beautiful sounds. It is all one piece and came in a nice case with a very cool blue wrap. It feels very high quality for the price, and am very pleased. Thank you Mr. Johnson.

    A lot of flute for the money
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2021*

I ordered this, then while waiting for it to come, did some reading around and saw lots of warnings about cheap shakuhachis online. I expected it to be Meh at best, I'd look it over and probably not keep it. But I'm really impressed! I'm a beginner, so we're talking the first two octaves here, Otsu and Kan, and it seems to do those fine. I've had experience with a PVC shakuhachi and the cast plastic Shakuhachi Yuu, and this plays easier than either of those. It's also a thing of real beauty. That matters more to some people and I didn't think I cared that much about looks but this thing is so beautiful, I've spent some time with a magnifying glass just looking at the beautiful grain around the mouthpiece and bell.
