Koto (O-koto, Koto) String Instrument, Japanese Traditional Instrument, 13 Strings

Thank you for looking.

My mother cherished this when she was learning to play, but I have no experience with the koto myself. I am listing it because my mother is moving and I would like someone to use it. It is quite old.
One string is broken and will likely need to be replaced.
She learned the Yamada style.

As I am a novice, please check the images before purchasing.

Shipping will be via Sagawa Express, cash on delivery. It will be shipped from Osaka Prefecture. Alternatively, for those in nearby areas, pick-up, delivery by my own car, or meeting somewhere for handover is possible. Please consult with me. I am located in Hirakata City.

Everything shown in the images is included, so please examine them carefully before purchasing.

There are minor scratches from use, but no noticeable large scratches or damage.

I plan to ship using bubble wrap, cardboard, etc.
As the item is large, I will ship it as soon as possible, but it may take some time to ship.
