First Shamisen, First Build

I just ordered Kyle’s book after binge watching a lot of his YouTube videos, and am ready to take on building my own shamisen. I plan to use hard rock maple and purple heart wood.

I will update this thread as progress is made.

Hey @Kyle-m2rn

Welcome to Bachido.
I’m happy that you decided to get on this journey of building a Shamisen.

Have you considered one of Bachido’s DIY kits for your first build?

Also, you are welcome to join our Discord community.
We are very active there, and you may be able to post updates, and get answers, much more quickly, and by more of our members.

Cheers.

@jonnyfive I looked at the kits and considered them an option. Would certainly make things easier. My budget at this time would not allow for such a large investment. Maybe in the future I could get one of the kits.

Thanks for letting me know about the discord community. I’ll have to check it out.

-Thanks again,
Kyle G.
