Comments:

Japan Original Pressing.

2LP “best of” Tsugaru shamisen from King – Chikuzan, Sawada, Kidabayashi, all in one set.

Good for overseas buyers who don’t want to chase individual LPs: this 2LP already has the big names (Chikuzan, Sawada, Kidabayashi) and the standard songs (Jonkara, Yosare, Ohara, Aiya). It’s a 70s King pressing, so the room sound is warm and the intros are clean enough to sample. Sell as “Japanese traditional / Tsugaru shamisen anthology (2LP), King SKM-136~7.”

About the Condition

Grade Description
S (Sealed) Still sealed in factory wrap. Never played.
M (Mint) Perfect condition. Looks unplayed with no signs of use. Typically used for records that are brand new or opened but never played.
EX (Excellent) Very clean. May have light scuffs or hairline marks, but plays perfectly.
VG+ (Very Good Plus) Minor wear, light surface noise, no major flaws — a solid average used copy.
VG (Very Good) Visible wear and surface noise. Plays through without skipping.
G+ (Good Plus) Heavily used. Significant wear or scratches, but still playable.

+ / − may be added to indicate slight variations (e.g. VG+, EX−).

We visually inspect every record, and we clean each one before shipping (play-testing when needed). Even new or great-looking vinyl—especially some Japanese pressings—can have light background noise. We grade carefully by eye and ear, but it’s still a human call, so please check the notes before buying.
