How many pigeons were you able to find by yourself?

The Portrait Miku Kobato “Starry Pigeons” is her second signature model after “Flappy Pigeon”. Kobato Miku of Band Maid has been playing Zemaitis guitar since 2016. We are proud to launch her second signature model to commemorate the 10th anniversary of her endorsement. We integrated her love and inspiration into our craftmanship and finally this twinkling guitar is made real. It was a long and winding process of creation. Now is the time to release the pigeons to the world and fly with them.

Not only the unique look of the guitar, but also this is an exquisite musical instrument using our best selected genuine mahogany for body and neck. This body shape, newly developed with Kobato for this model, is smaller and lighter than our regular disc front to achieve new playability. The smooth satin lacquer, finished in house, gives you buttery neck feel and smooth playability. Custom Zemaitis “Starry Pigeons” Miku Kobato Pickups, gives the guitar an articulate and responsive delivery while maintaining clear and sensitive tone. The "Starry Pigeons” resonates with a distinguished sound with the combination of the metal plate and the 1-piece mahogany body. Warm but clear. Sensitive but deep. You will find the elements of Zemaitis tone in the “Starry Pigeons”.

Are you aware of the number on the truss rod cover saying “581039”. What is the meaning of these numbers?

They are phonically equivalent to “Kobato Miku” in Japanese. 5 is for ”Ko”, 8 “Ba”, 10 "To” and Miku “39”. Incidentally, “39” also has an alternative meaning of “Thank you”.

You will find groups of starry pigeons representing each number of 581039. So many stories behind this guitar as well as the starry pigeons flying free on top of this piece of art.

Special thanks to Miku Kobato, Kouji Takeuchi, a graphic designer, who designed her 1st signature guitars as well, and lastly for the enthusiastic Zemaitis guitar players who are keen to experience our craftmanship.

You can see 5 pigeons to represent "Ko" on the 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th and the 9th fret. Also, 8 pigeons as "Ba" on the 12th, 15th, 17th, 19th, 21st and 24th.

You can easily count 10 pigeons which represents “To” of Kobato on the disc. But the question is, then where is Miku? You may wonder where else could it be possible to find or even place as many as 39 birds? Look at the belt motif of the perimeter of the disc plate! There are 39 of them flying gracefully. Now you find Miku and her appreciation. Now let's make them soar!
