About the Urushi Tsugaru
The Koetsu Urushi Tsugaru is a luxury moving coil phono cartridge in Koetsu’s Urushi line, distinguished by its traditional Japanese lacquer finish and handcrafted construction. It uses a rosewood body with Urushi lacquer and a blue-flecked gold speckle cosmetic style, combining artisanal appearance with classic Koetsu MC engineering. Published retailer and catalog sources describe it as a highly labor-intensive cartridge aimed at serious analog playback, with specifications centered on low-output MC operation.
