Stretching a Skin on a Shamisen Posted by: fiddlefella
Video duration: 417 seconds Ever wanted your "loose as a goose" skinned shamisen head to be replaced with super-tight skin but cringed at the ridiculous $200+ (per side!) price? Well, it's very easy to do yourself (just a little mind-numbing making 18 clamps. . . but pretend you didn't hear that). Follow this guide and you can get the same results as the pro-stretchers.
