But also with a very limited range... an octave, or slightly more? My guess is that it was custom-made for a stage act. And strictly for the sake of appearance, since it's much larger than necessary for what it is musically. More for fun than for music, I'd say, though maybe one could fit a mast and sail to it. 8^D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if either was for sale, there are already queues at least a dozen long for each... and have been for decades. Good luck to you, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
