Included in this auction: Instrument Mouthpiece Rovner ligature (really helped to open up the problematic G, G#, A, and Bb that plague all clarinets) Case (purchased at the time of overhaul, one of the three latches has broken and has minor scuffs) Konig & Meyer instrument stand   Since the overhaul I have taken great care of this instrument.  During everyday assembly and disassembly I used a cloth to avoid touching more of the instrument than nessasary.  After playing a snake was always used to dry the instrument before packing up.  The instrument sounds and plays as Leblanc intended.  This Contrabass took me to many all-district and other honor bands;  as it was my own personal investment I made sure to take great care of this instrument, and it shows.    If you have any questions, feel free to ask.  Also, I live 30 minutes north of Charlotte.  If anyone would like to come see the instrument please let me know.  I attend school at Appalachian and could arrange to show it there as well. The pictures ended up really small on the ad.  I can send the full size pictures to anyone, just ask. Place a Bid!
