pipa maker 琵琶研制师

pipa,one of the chinese ancient musical instrument, i have just visited a very famous semi-retired pipa-maker in beijing. all his pipas are absolute hand made and the basic wooden body has to be rested for at least 15 years after cut down and before work out. it sounds a long peroid to perform until finish one, so that's why it cost a lot!!! over 20,000 us dollar for a nice one. of course, the cheaper you can buy in market but i mean the professional, you must to see this guy,mr.men,shui-xing,in beijing china.

20,000 RMB is a mere 3000 USD. Trust me, there are guitars worth more than 3,000 USD - especially in the field of classical guitars. 3,000 USD will get you a STUDENT classical guitar.
