Hello. I was wondering if you could post measurements (specifically for the wood used in the neck) and materials used. I want to make one myself and am looking forward to doing so. This seems like the most accessible approach so far.
The neck is about 40*1.5*1.5 inches, the belly is 7*2.5*2.5 inches. I forgot the exact name of the materials, but the neck is definitely hardwood, the tuning bar is softwood, and the belly is a normal box bought on Amazon.
A nice video and the shamisen looks nice and sounds good as well. Though I think you should have invested a bit more into the tools, a kitchen knife isn't made for woodworking, using it for something like this could damage the knife and you could injure yourself with it.
You really made it look like anyone could do it haha. Thanks!
Brilliant ! Loved the "plectrum". Inspired to make a shamisen myself now.
Ok, it sounds better than I thought it would
thank you for sharing your craft
This looks like when I build stuff. Hand work-holding. Notebook workbench. I think I even have that box.
hi :), what could be used as a substitute for goatskin? thks , beautiful video

@@orlyosiris2245 Thanks!
@@orlyosiris2245 can I use other dimensions for the box, I’m having trouble finding that exact one.
@@aarondean5021 Of course, I chose it because it’s the cheapest one on Amazon
@@orlyosiris2245 ok, thanks!
amazing, looking forward to more content
Play 5 CSGO?

Hi, could you tell me the distance between the bridges? I mean de low bridge and the top bridge where the strings stay. Thanks
Men that's great!
1:18 … ahhh, just like a cigar box guitar!
Yo this is awesome! I'm thinking about trying to make one for myself and was wondering what that sheet you used was?
I didn't have any sheets. The music I played in the end is the famous "Sakura".
@@orlyosiris2245 Sorry I should have specified. I mean what material was the sheet you used to cover the box with.
@@deku_the_super_saiyan5255 I used goat skin
@@orlyosiris2245 Thank you very much! Sorry for the confusion again.
Well done 👍
Hey again, what did you use for the strings??? Thanks for helping me out :)
I used nylon classical guitar strings, light tension
@@orlyosiris2245 thanks brotha!! You’ve been a life saver
i liked what i saw
Can you elaborate more on the process of how you made the Itomaki?
Was that white thing a cloth or fiber?
They use goat/dog/cat skin for real product.
What specific nylon strings did you use was it like the high E,B,D
Yes, probably E,B,D or E,G,D. You need to figure out the tunning on yourself.
Hi i have a question can i make that shamisen without using the skin?
That’s awesome!! I’m trying to make it but I was wondering how you made the “pick” that you strum with. Would you mind telling me?
I used a spoon
@@orlyosiris2245 oh my gosh you did hahaha. What a cheap alternative usually it’s like $200 for a pick
@@dakotafuchs7931 im pretty sure you could make your own pick out of hardwood, although it may be hard to get the specifics right
@@pige0223 yeah I just might use a spoon to be honest, I’m working on the instrument now so I’m saving the pic situation when I get there lol
how many years in wood crafting have you had?
0
👍👍👍
Is that genshin inazuma theme in the last part?
is it horse head fiddle?
please would you have the measurements ? :CCCCCC
Puede mandar las medidas para hacer la biwa
What string did you use
hi man, what did you cover the body of the shamisen with? (white round thing)
Goat skin. Cover it when it’s soggy, then it becomes hard when it dries.
I'm taking notes! My dad works with wood.
Edit: You used a spoon?!
A nice video and the shamisen looks nice and sounds good as well.
Though I think you should have invested a bit more into the tools, a kitchen knife isn't made for woodworking, using it for something like this could damage the knife and you could injure yourself with it.
awesome!
What material did you use for the skin?
Goat skin
@@orlyosiris2245Is there any alternate thing that I can use instead of goat skin? Something that I could find anywhere
What can I use for white sheet used on head ?
Goat skin. Cover it when it’s soggy, then it becomes hard when it dries.
@@orlyosiris2245 I got it. Thanks !
SAKURA SAKURA

Haha i've heard this melody used in BABYMETAL's song Megitsune so i thought it's from that. I didn't know about Sakura.
