TITLE: Ichigenkin Being Played
DESCRIPTION: The ichigenkin is being played. I think there is a pick, and according to Wikipedia, the round tube is a rokan, which is used to hold down the string and change the pitch. The rokan also slides up and down the string, or can be lifted suddenly for interesting tonal effects.
