Chikuin 1.8

Yamazaki Chikuin's flutes were made in the early 20th century, yet have many of the qualities of the great 19th c. shakuhachi produced by Araki Chikuo and other makers: very little ji, very large bore profile, and a lot of chikuin. His flutes are unusually "live," very resonant, have a big sound but can also play extremely quietly with an exceptionally low "cutoff." This Chikuin is no exception.

Price: $6,000
