Yung Flutes Shakuhachi

This movie showcases the different kinds of shakuhachi I specialize in crafting - the modern jiari, the old Jinashi and the all natural Hocchiku. I studied shakuhachi crafting through combined grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, The Japan-United States Friendship commission and the International House of Japan.

Hi Peter, Thanks for your question. The traditional Japanese shakuhachi has fives but there is a version with seven holes made for contemporary Japanese music. Can't tell you if the website you are looking at offers authentic shakuhachi or not as there are many hybrid flutes designed to look like a shakuhachi.

Take care, Perry

You, sir, have an epic fro-hawk ;D

P.S. How much do these normally cost?

last year I bought a smaller shakuhachi from a friend of mine that makes them in virginia. I've been attempting to teach myself but have been humbled by my lack of technique. i appreciate your videos, and hope to learn something from them.
