Alan Jones Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 It is in beautiful condition. I bought it from Marcus Music about 20 years ago, but have been playing it less and less so it is time to let it go. It has recently been back to Marcus for a check-up. It just needed a couple of values sorting out. I live near Chippenham, North Wiltshire. I am very happy for you to come and have a look (and of course have a play!). I am asking £1,750 or nearest offer. Here are some pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Jones Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 A couple more points.... It comes with a modern soft case. I thought the original box was a bit fragile for carting around sessions! It does still have the original wrist straps, which look as though they have hardly been used.

Chris Timson Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Just thought I'd say hi, because as I write I'm sitting at my desk in an office in Chippenham. I play anglo myself, but we do get several English players come along to our English music session in Bradford on Avon, and you never know, one of them might be interested. Co-incidentally there's one tonight, at The George in Bradford on Avon. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Jones Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 Dear Sir, May I know when this instrument is made? Does it need any further restoration? Chi Hello Chi The Wheatstone day book shows that the instrument left their factory on 31st December 1937. As far as I am aware, it needs no further restoration. It has just been checked over by Marcus Music, who fixed a couple of rattling valves. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Ok Alan I'm afraid that I'm not interested then, as my lovely metal-ended Edeophone caters very well with that range! All the best! "In the springtime of the year ...!"
