Description

Chinese notched flute. Tuned in A C D E F G, The Japanese Shakuhachi served as a model. Also it is blown through a notch at the upper end of the tube. Because of the different shape of the notch the sound can be kept a little more stable than the Japanese version. The sound is very smooth, deep and restrained. Originally it was used by Buddhistic Monks for their meditations, before it finally found its way to Japan 500 years ago. Length: 29-33 inch. Diameter: 1 inch Weight: 5 OZ
