Gorgeous Wheatstone 58B Mccann Duet

[Greg Jowaisas]

Absolutely beautiful Wheatstone 58b McCann duet serial # 35394 (1942) model 35A showing hardly any wear.

This instrument has the desirable range of the low 'C' on the LH and middle 'C' as the lowest note on the RH.

 

Steel reeds in brass shoes. IMHO Wheatstone was still making high quality reed assemblies as late as 1942 (and in some cases beyond) that rival their "Golden period" and this instrument proves that in its sound and response. Comes with a period hard case and key.

 

$2100. USD + shipping.

 

With the current interest in duets, time to bump this one to the head of the queue with new pics.

 

You can personal message me or email: gjowaisas (type "at") twc.com

 

I also have a Wheatstone metal end 58b McCann and a "Voice of God" 81b.

Marcus: "...If only I was rich and played duet"

 

Well, you are still young enough to take care of the rich part. As for the playing, this instrument might provide the inspiration!

 

Happy holidays!

If you ever have an equivalent Crane, let me know!

With the current interest/discussions of duets seems appropriate to bump this one up and make it current.

BTW I have a friend with a nice 55b Wheatstone Crane who has given it to me to go over and will soon be available.
