This taiko was used as part of a set of drums and as a katsugi-oke. The white body with purple ropes creates a striking appearance that will stand out on stage.

It has become unused and is taking up space. Please contact us for hand-delivery or price negotiation. We would like to pass it on to someone who will cherish it. Thank you for your consideration.

Below is the manufacturer's specification description.

Asano Taiko

Asano Taiko refers to Asano Taiko Gakki Co., Ltd., a specialized Japanese drum manufacturer founded in 1609. For over 400 years, they have inherited the techniques of Japanese drum making, handling everything from the felling of raw timber to leather processing, lacquer coating, leather stretching, studding, and sales.

This taiko is an improved version of the barrel-bodied taiko, devised by Eitetsu Hayashi for stage performance. It is often used as part of a drum set, placed on a stand. A variety of color combinations for the body and ropes can be enjoyed.
