Bamboo Colors: The New Standard in Shakuhachi Flutes

We are delighted to introduce Bamboo Colors, our 2026 Collection. This series is born from a vibrant vision of color. These exquisite patterns, which captures the essence of bamboo in a 360º integral design, is available in a diverse palette of shades and designs that enhance the flutes' aesthetics.

Each instrument features our characteristic precision mouthpiece with the inlay of our exclusive "Bat Mouth" Koumori 2.0 design. This innovation is the hallmark of our flutes, guaranteeing the best blowing experience, superior sound quality, and unparalleled aesthetics. In "Bamboo Colors," customization is fundamental. We offer the possibility to select the style of the flute's bore finish: Jiari or Jinashi Style and the customization of other features.

In their own words

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Excellent classes, I recommend them. I felt at ease and made good chemistry with Zapata sensei, who inspired me to strengthen my practice. His book is a must, it is very good. I recently received my Jiari Shakuhachi Mumon Ryu and GEM series bass flute and they are wonderful, extraordinary pieces. The sound flows with ease, enjoying blow and tone. It has helped me to improve my sound and this really inspires me and makes me feel better about my daily practice of blowing zen. Thank you sensei."

Elogio la didáctica y acertada metodología, el hecho de tener tareas pautadas, ayuda mucho a la disciplina y el progreso exitoso. La escuela online está diseñada meticulosamente y tiene mucho material grabado que facilita el aprendizaje. La recomiendo.

"I have received my flute after only 3 days of enrolling to shakuhachi master course. The response was quick and from the beginning of the course I've been treated with respect and encouragement. The course has many topics that support my learning and is easily accessible and concise. The study cycles progress through the certification and are laid out in a logical and progressive manner with personal instructional training support from Zapata sensei."
