SOLD

Click this image to see larger version.

1.7 Tensei Monk’s Jinashi natural bore shakuhachi made around 80 years ago. Ivory Utaguchi inlay.red lacquered bore. Small repaired crack at the back of the top. This flute was fully functional and all I did was perform a thorough cleaning as the bore has a dense layer of ancient dust. It is now in great playing condition. The entire flute can be played easily in tune by an experienced player.

Hear this flute. I am playing neutrally to give a clearer idea of the integrity of the tuning and voice.

Testimonials & Endorsements

"...I've only seen two of Perry's Tensei flutes so far, but they certainly won't be the last I'll be getting for my students. Knowing Perry's penchant for perfection, I can comfortably give his flutes my highest recommendation."- Riley Lee, Dai Shihan, Organizer of the World Shakuhachi Festival, Sydney, Australia

""I suggest that while you are in New York you contact Perry Yung, who is making excellent instruments right here in New York, and some of them are very reasonably priced. Perry is a wonderful person...You could visit him, pick a flute, and take an introductory lesson, or maybe two or three lessons before you leave New York."- Ralph Samuelson, Kinko Master New York City

"Perry Yung is a rare man to find in the Shakuhachi World today. Perry may well prove to be one of the handful of non-Japanese that can make a Shakuhachi in the traditional style - equal to the best of the Japanese makers themselves. There's just no stopping him and his talents!"- Ronnie Nyogetsu Reishin Seldin, Grandmaster
