  • Authentic Japanese made instrument Kinko Ryu
  • Original water buffalo horn, Kinko Ryu blowing edge inlay.
  • Intermediate

    This is a repaired and restored, authentic KINKO Ryu shakuhachi instrument hand crafted in Japan in the 1960's. It is a standard 1.8 length (D pitch) shakuhachi in the intermediate/advanced level available in my TENSEI Line (rebirth/recycle) of fine Japanese crafted instruments. This JIARI style - fine-tuned-bore - instrument was made according to the high standards of the Japanese shakuhachi community for musicians who play and study shakuhachi music. It is perfect for classical and modern music. Or, open for Honkyoku zen music. It has one crack on the top section along the back that has been repaired in my low-impact approach to binding form the of instead of inlaid.  It is guaranteed playable for another lifetime for the next owner. The bamboo is on the medium wide side with a shaved Kezerine style root decorated with urushi lacquer. It is a dense piece of bamboo. On the Japanese market place for professional shakuhachi, this one would fall in the $2400 price range. Please know that the standard shakuhachi length is 1.8 in D for lessons with a traditional teacher of music. Having served the international shakuhachi community by providing all aspects of professional shakuhachi work for over 20 years (flutes, repairs, workshops and performances), I and am proud to say I offer The Best Guarantee in the world. - aside from full servicing and support, the owner can upgrade the flute at anytime with full value applied towards the higher level instrument trade. I have found this to be the best service I can provide to anyone interested in continuous musical growth with a proper instrument. Read more FAQs on my website on the different types of shakuhachi instruments to learn what might be right for you. I welcome all questions. All my instruments are 100% guaranteed for any reason.

    "...I've only seen two of Perry's Tensei flutes so far, but they certainly won't be the last I'll be getting for my students. Knowing Perry's penchant for perfection, I can comfortably give his flutes my highest recommendation.""

    Shipping: I usually ship on the next business day unless the payment was received on a Friday, weekend or holiday, which would then be shipped on the next business day. International shipping is done through United States Postal Service International Priority Express Mail and is estimated around 10 -14 days more or less (we never know what happens at your customs department). All International shipping is flat rate of $56 (except Canada - $38). I do my best to help save the planet so I hope you do not mind if your flute is securely packed in clean, recycled materials.
    Yung Flutes Guarantee If you contact me with questions and the flute does not suit you, I will happily exchange for one that will or you can have a full refund, even the shipping costs . This is one of the reasons why I can call my guarantee the Best Guarantee in the World . Additionally, the winner has my unique One Year Upgrade Guarantee , you have one year to trade in this shakuhachi at full value applied towards an upgraded shakuhachi from my personally crafted professional instruments or you can trade to my Tensei line of master level Japanese made instruments. Lastly, as a Japanese trained, traditional craftsman, I can service any aspect of your instrument should it become damaged. I'm proud to say there is no other guarantee like it in the world.
