Mirafone bassoon

Description

Bassoon “Miraphone”
serial number 10551
The instrument is playable, in good shape.
The instrument is pretty old, so there are some small scratches and dents, but still there is nothing serious. The mechanics of the instrument was maintained: it’s completely cleared of dirt, all pads were replaced with new (they were replaced about 2 years ago, but since then the instrument’s been used very rarely), all the slacks were removed. The intonation is good, sound-producing is at the strong middle level - it is not so easy to produce sound as you can do it with new instruments, but it can be compared with other instruments of the same age.
Please pay your attention: there is a problem part in the instrument. There was some body repairs in the bottom part of the boot joint. The repairs were provided with solid epoxy resin (you can see everything right in the picture). There is also a cork gasket in this part. It is in very good working condition, but it is still better to replace it.

Complete set of the delivery includes the bassoon and the case. The bocal is not included in the set. But I have a “Püchner” bocal DD1, which I can sell for 180$, or “Püchner” bocal BD2 for 230$.
The instrument will be delivered with EMS Russian post, the price can be seen in shipping details.
The bassoon can also be delivered with other ways which can be discussed individually.
