Please only "like" this item if you plan to purchase it within a week. This is a niche instrument, so it's for those who can understand it from the pictures. According to the instrument store where I purchased it, it's a first-generation Lechner, formerly owned by an orchestra in Germany (I don't have any further details). Features a snake decoration and a long water key. The slide moves, but I'm a little concerned about it, so I recommend having it adjusted. The plating on the slide is worn in some areas due to the instrument's age.
