monster low shakuhachi new pictures and videos

Hi,
here are some pictures of exeptionnal bigs shakuhachis i will finish soon:
2.5 in G, 2.9 in F , 3.2 in D , 3.3 in ...Db low!

They are both gomma bamboo i'ved harvest in france this winter: large diameter- between 4.5 and 6 cm- nice skin patern, thick and solid bambou-around 1cm of wall-
The 3.2 shoud be nice player, tuned to D...good ratio between otsu and kan
3.3 are monster: the largest has wonderfull kan register but more difficult to blow on kan register..i have to try ajustement for several notes like le et Chi on Kan

2.5 et 2.7 are very good players: wonderfull bass register, goes easely on kan and evently daikan..i have only to precise Up register (3) for some note on The 2.7 like shi (Eb )in daikan.




those video have been made before this works and with a too mutch proximity of the top of the flute: so the sound has too mutch undesirable blowing noise...will make other later!
