The Beginner's Shamisen — Bachido Store
http://bachido.com/store/beginner-shamisen
Shamisen of Japan Book. Calf Skin Option (USA). At Bachido, we know that shamisen are very expensive instruments to learn. Though some people know shamisen is for them upon hearing the first snap of the string, it's difficult for most of us to spend $1000 on an instrument without trying it first. It's been my dream for years to find a source for affordable shamisen so people can start their three-stringed journey with greater ease. And at last, we've done it! I present to you, the Beginner's Shamisen.
