Looking for feedback!

Hi Codi! Welcome to the world of shamisen :smiley:

Are you thinking of starting with a Nagauta/Thin neck, Jiuta/Middle neck or Tsugaru/Fat neck? Besides that question, here are my answers:

  1. Natural skin is harder to maintain especially for beginners but the sound is more crisp from my understanding. There’s a video by Bachido on YouTube comparing FiberSen and plastic, I’m pretty sure.

Edit: here it is! Bachido Presents: Fibersen: (Comparison Test) - YouTube

  1. I’m selling a Jiuta/Chuzao/Middle neck shamisen set which would be great for beginners! I posted about it on this link: Selling a Jiuta/Chuzao Shamisen Set

Good luck on finding your first shamisen :slight_smile:
