Friends, Spaniards, Shakuhachi lovers, lend me your ears......
I now have a PVC shakuhachi that measures 94.5 cm in length!! Plays easily in
both otsu and kan, if I can reach the holes!!!
Made from 1 inch schedule 80 gray wall with a 3/4 inch insert about 1.5
inches long inside the utaguchi end and a 1 inch connector with insert on
the other end to simulate a root end. This thing is super for Zen blowing,
tho it takes a gentle wind to sound good. Takes my best technique to sound
constant, but I can kari a meri tune with it!
<grin>
