high quality materials

Craftsmen personally go overseas to purchase wood and carefully select the wood that will be used as the material.
We take great care in drying them naturally over several decades to adapt them to Japan's climate, and then sorting them further.
Reliable pitch accuracy
Since we manufacture bridges with shapes that match the pitch of the strings, we can accommodate string tensions that vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.
Accurate pitch is achieved through accurate bridges and fretting.
stable tone
By integrating the neck and body, a rich volume that allows the entire instrument to resonate is possible.
Achieves a stable tone with a finish that has no individual differences.

It is an instrument that more clearly reflects the individuality of the player and continues to be a partner in musical activities.
