Wako Shinobues

Thank you for your interest in Wako shinobues.

Please note that all Wako shinobues are made to order, except for those marked as “In stock.”

Currently, the estimated wait time is approximately 3 to 4 months. I appreciate your patience.

Characteristics

The overall tonal quality can be described as "deep yet resonant."
These Do Re Mi style shinobues are tuned to Western scales with superb accuracy in pitch (A4 = 442 Hz).
They have been crafted by Mr. Tanaka, a shinobue craftsman certified by Ota Ward in Tokyo.
The bright tone of Wako shinobue may help you project sound more effectively.
Choose from 9 available colors at no additional cost.
To ensure durability, Wako shinobues available on my website are covered in a thick layer of urushi lacquer, which protects against cracking in dry environments, such as those with central air conditioning and heating. (Most Japanese houses do not have central air conditioning and heating and Japan is a very humid country.)
Please note that the lacquer does contain urushi, which may cause a mild rash for some individuals initially. (But I did not experience any reaction to Wako shinobues despite my urushi allergy.)
