Getting on fairly well with the Hayden system, so here is another instrument for sale.

Never the less, a very good playing and sounding instrument from Wheatstone's top period.

I Have tried to describe the instrument as honestly and accurately as I can, but will answer any further questions you may have.

Thanks for all the interest, the Wheatstone is now sold. A donation will be sent to C net as soon as I sort the payment, postage and insurance out.

 

The Crabb instrument listed by me, is still currently available, but there is interest being shown.
