FS Hughes Bb chanter box and silver

Post by Sam L »

A customer of mine is selling this Hughes Bb

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Revised-list ... rk:12:pf:0

I haven't actually seen it, but I did have a similar Hughes Bb set in ebony in here recently, which was rather nice.

Edit - after reading the site guidelines for adding description - it is silver plated brass, imitation ivory mounts and has 2 keys, C and G#.

There's a video here https://youtu.be/uCXgmcXOKUw
" . . . when it's finished you look at it and you think that perhaps it will live longer than you, and perhaps it will be of use to someone you don't know, who doesn't know you. Maybe as an old man you'll be able to . . look at it, and it will seem beautiful . . "
