Hi All, I have quite a bit of work ahead of me for the holidays but I always try to accommodate. If you want to order a shakuhachi for a Holiday gift, the order has to be made before Dec 10th so hat it can be shipped out by Dec 20th. If you can not make the cut off date, the next best thing is the Yung Flutes Gift Certificate. It starts at $125 and includes an Earth Model shakuhachi with all the accessories to get started. Shipping is included.  The Certificate is printed on Japanese inspired Washi style paper and comes with a matching envelope for a great presentation. There’s been a flurry of international activity this week with shakuhachi going to Australia, United Kingdom, Singapore, Italy and Germany. International orders take longer for shipping because of Customs Inspections so please factor that in onthe delivery time. The quickest and least expensive way for me to ship international is through USPS Express International. It is estimated at 5 days and runs between $$34 - $44 depending upon country. Canada is least expensive at $21. Here is a batch of Earth Model shakuhachi that went to Germany this week.

Namaste, Perry
