The best place to look is on Monty Levenson's website.
www.shakuhachi.com He sells playing guides and has
some terrific links including one in Japan. If you
live in the U.S. and don't have problems with currency
exchange they're very reasonably priced. The Carl
Abbott playing guide for Kinko with accompanying
cassettes is well recommended and the John Kaizan
Neptune one with accompanying CD in Tozan also. Going
to Monty's site will save you a lot of time etc.
