Lindner. South Germany (?)

Bassoon composed of four maple parts and a brass bocal. The stamp “Linder” is legible on the large branch, the cap and the boot. The small branch is ringed at both ends and there is no trace of signature. However, observation of the wood, the size and the keys lead us to consider that it is probably the original branch. Split, it was repaired, sanded, and reinforced with brass rings.

Four brass keys.

NB: This bassoon is listed in “New Langwill index” p. 237.

Total length: 122.4cm.
