Greg Jowaisas Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 (edited) Now sold! 1/26/09 Donation made to cnet. I have finished reconditioning a 1931 Wheatstone tenor treble and am offering it for sale. All necessary work has been done such as pads, valves, new thumbstraps and it is in tune and in A=440 concert pitch. It has the original wrist straps. Bellows are in wonderful shape. The ebony ends have some light scratches and dings but no abuse. Rivet action and the inside is very clean. Classic Wheatstone sound with a very good balance between the low and high notes (You can chord and not overwhelm the high melody). $4200. USD + shipping. Contribution to cnet from a resulting sale. Photos upon request Greg PS. I also have: 26b Jones C/G available. Good player, steel reeds. $1100. 40b Wheatstone Bb serial #55582 piccolo tuned. $2900. Edited January 26, 2009 by Greg Jowaisas

Can you offer some sound clips with the tenor-treble of yours? I'm looking for such instrument, but the sound is so varied. Thanks.
Greg Jowaisas Posted April 19, 2008 Author Posted April 19, 2008 Misha, I'm fairly cyber challenged. But I suppose if I figured out how to manage my cnet attachments I can figure out how to record a sound file or mp3 on my computer. I'll get working on it but please don't hold your breath while I raise my learning curve. Greg
Greg Jowaisas Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 Time to bump this one to the front of the queue. I will also include a new Jowaisas case as part of the sale. Greg
