Question Kyle or anyone who can answer this?

in Kyles book under the “Legend for Distance to from Kamigoma”
the pictue shows markings 19-20 right next to each other but the table has 19. 57.50 cm
20. 60.00 cm

is that a type-O? cause thats like a full inch

Hey Terry,

I will pull out my shamisen and double check tomorrow! :slight_smile:

Cheers!

I just checked it out. It appears to have been one centimeter off! Position 19 should be 58.5 cm, and position 20 is 60cm.

Thanks for letting me know! :slight_smile:

cool thx Kyle…
so does that mean the rest of the scale is off by 1cm or just 19?
not point out errors man I assure you! was trying to lay out a distance pattern for pearl inlays on a Shamisen sao pattern…

I believe it’s just 19. :slight_smile:

Whoa!! Definitely show us your pearl inlay when you finish! :smiley: that will be awesome!

Note, the distances of the positions do change slightly based on the location of the koma. :slight_smile:
