Hi Bill, I find myself in the same boat.. i think it is great to learn
other shaku lenghts.. more so, on the type of music, and piece you are
playing.. i think a 2.4 range is what you are looking too fine. But finding
the right shaku/ timbre for you is another task... best, theo

Subject: [Shaku] Size

Hi,

I'm considering getting a different size/key shakuhachi, i.e., different
from the 1.8. I want to a lower pitch. I'm looking for a good, resonant
sound (aren't we all), and don't care about the key. A different way to ask
the question is, what's the most popular size, after the 1.8? I think that
once I have the size, e.g., 2.4, I need to try some to find the timbre I'm
looking for.

Bill
