A little demo of a bass taishogoto (or nagoya harp, or taisho harp, or taisho koto... So many names!) that I got!

Wow, that is cool, I wasn't expecting it to sound like that when you got rid of the pick, and used only the kehs

hi, great video.... Can I also use electric guitar strings? Which strings should I use for each type of "voice" on the instrument (bass, tenor, soprano)? what is the correct tuning, given that, if I understand correctly, all the strings are G?

A regular Taisho-Koto would sound the same (base) if you change the strings from thin to thick-coiled strings.

Hm, is that so? 🤔 I'm no expert, but I would think the length of the instrument would have some impact. The bass taisho is considerably longer than the standard soprano taisho. I'm not sure if you could just transpose the strings, and get the same results.

@@BenElliottSound OK A BASS Taisho-Koto? you got me thinking now! I have a Yamaha TH-10E. There are 6 strings 4 Melody and 2 drones. And an 8 string Taisho-Koto. I'll try to change the string to thick coiled strings. I'll let you know. Thanks.
