Myoan 1.6 jinashi shakuhachi $900. 298g. Very fine quality 1.6, plays in the pitch of E-flat. This is a myoan shakuhachi of unusual capability in all respects. The bore is wide, and the flute voices extremely well all the way up into the third octave. Tone is gorgeous and well-focused, even with the wide bore. The bamboo quality is also very fine, a high end choice piece with beautiful patina. The flute is signed, but the signature is unreadable. Finger holes are large and ovalized. This is a special instrument. Recordings available >>home
