Mike has a waiting list of (theoretically) 18 months, practically almost 3 years (based on my experience). Price tag for such new instrument is 3,500AU$ + shipping, you're welcome to verify that by contacting him.
My listed price is the equivalent 2,400 Euros, however I do include shipping (Registered, insured). Recorder comes in it's original soft bag.
If you pay with PayPal, I must increase to 2700 euros as they have high fees.

Why do you sell?
Since ordering the instrument more than 3 years ago, I do not have time to practice as I used to, and that's ain't going to change soon. So you get a totally new instrument.

Sound qualities:
This modern pitched recorder would be optimal for concertos (Arnold Cooke's for example) or modern music, as it has a very brilliant (somewhat reedy), full tone. Recorders tend to fade while being plyaed together with other instruments, but this instrument is noticable and stands out. (very) Easy speaking all registers.

Would you agree for a trial?
Yes, if you don't like it and ship back in same condition within 2 weeks of receipt, I will return all payment back (excluding shipping price+bank fees).
Payment by cheque or bank transfer. The problem with PayPal, is that for overseas non-business transactions they charge a very high fee which makes it absurd.
