This recorder is in good condition, as it was used by a meticulous girl. No name written on it. Almost all of the grease remains. There is no thumb rest. I've never heard that it was used at her friend's school, so I don't think it's a problem, but it seems you can buy one on Amazon if needed. How about it for children who have lost theirs, or for children who want to practice at home? It will be disassembled for shipping due to shipping costs. #SopranoRecorder #Recorder
