Misc FS Stunning Franz Adler Piccolo Silver keys & Grenadilla Wood

There's a bit of a story to this one.

Once upon a time I was a pro player relying on doubling for stuff like Radio Orchestra gigs and had a decent Yamaha piccolo for such use. Then one day this homeless looking person came up to me asking if I wanted to buy a recorder. No thanks I said, then, maybe let's have a look. It was this tatty looking piccolo. I gave it a quick blow and was immediately blown away. So I gave him quite a lot more money than he was hoping for, hoped he didn't overdose, checked with police and MU that nobody had reported it stolen and here we are today. Oh yes I had it overhauled back then by Bill Lewingtons who appraised it at 2k - 3k. Since then it's been used occasionally and finely fettled by @Stephen Howard , the fine fettler.

Here's a clip
