Review (no edit):
I am very happy with the Tsugaru Shamisen I bought from Shamimaster Shishido. It has all the necessary features in order to fully enjoy and start playing Tsugaru Shamisen.Not only is it very robust and hearty, but I really like the black colored pads and itomaki that came with it!

When you buy Shamisen via Shamisen shops,,
please check the manufacturer. Only 3 manufacturer is there.
TOAMUSIC , Tokyo Wagakki, Nichiwa(Nihon Wagakki Seizo)
Tokyo Wagakki's Shamisen is expensive because they only use Japanese craftsman.

This Shamisen is made by TOAMUSIC, which is the most popular Shamisen manufacturer in Japan.

Nichiwa and TOAMUSIC is made in China.Japanes craftsman teach directly, so
it's endurable and high quality.
Nichiwa's Shamisen is a little bit expensive than TOAMUSIC.
We sell TOAMUSIC shamisen,because Shishido Inc. is only one Ambassador of TOAMUSIC.
