This Koto was bought from Oonuma Instruments in Asahigawa, Hokkaido in 2007.

　　Right here is Oonuma's site: http://potato7.hokkai.net/~oonuma-g/.

　　Oonuma is a small, artisan, family-owned store that produces high quality Western and Traditional Japanese instruments.

　　It has barely been made use of and is in outstanding condition. It has to do with 6 feet long and really light. It is constructed of Paulownia wood. The 13 white bridges, 3 sets of picks, red liner, and blue safety lugging case are consisted of. The two sets of red picks have actually been used thoroughly (on another practice koto at my old instructor's store, NOT used on this one), however the white set has not been made use of (new, it was $90).

　　The wood is excellent except for one small gouge. See Photo.

　　This koto cost $1,600 brand-new and has actually been used about 10 times.

　　None of the strings show any indicators of wear, and none have actually snapped. This koto will certainly not need a tuning wrench to set string stress correctly.

　　It is hard to part with, but I do not play enough to justify keeping it.

　　Please e-mail or call/text 3 zero 7 6 nine 9 5 3 five 8 with concerns or demands for more information.

　　Would be ready to drive up to 200 miles from postal code 59901 to deliver this. Please contact to negotiate.
