Jakkie from sunny South Africa
Hello all!
I have recently discovered this beautiful instrument and though frustrating at time am loving it. I am finding that it really calms me and helps me feel refreshed and centered even if some days it is difficult to get a sound out of it.

Hi Jakkie,
Welcome to the forum. There is a very nice fellow in SA who plays shakuhachi named John Roff. He is on the forum. You might want to contact him if you don't already know him.

Thank you! I contacted John yesterday, I was starting to worry that there weren't any others in SA.

He was worried he was the only one! I visited him a few years back and it was his first interaction with a shakuhachi compatriot.
