Place to buy Japanese instruments online?

[512kb]

Does anyone know of any websites that sell Japanese instruments? What i'm looking for is a Shamisen (preferably a Tsugaru). I have searched everywhere and had no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You know, I want to buy one too but it's very expensive for me and if it's broken or something it's hard to find some places out of Japan that can help you repair it...

You can find 2 or 3 on ebay, this is one:

If you type Shamisen and search again you will get one that is $250 i think.
