    Description

    For sale is a soprano rauschpfeife (in C) by Günter Körber (see maker’s mark / name in photos).
    I had its original plastic reed replaced with a new cane reed, custom made for this exact instrument by a professional early winds specialist, and had its tuning adjusted at the same time.
    It’s barely been played since then, and not at all for two years-- I moved into a smaller place with a shared wall and it’s too loud to play indoors without annoying the neighbors.
    I will include a fingering chart and the notes from the reedmaker.
    Plays very well (and loudly!) but requires a great deal of breath pressure.
    The instrument is in overall good shape for its age; capsule does not leak air (if you remove it and close the bottom by hand), and the fit at the head joint is snug (cork is in great shape).
    Sent to you very securely packed (I've shipped it previously, to the reedmaker, with no problems) with tracking, by FedEx, at no shipping cost to you.
    Please have a secure delivery address; I will not be responsible if your package is stolen.
    Please note that I ship only Monday through Friday.  Return accepted only if you ship with tracking and insurance.
