This is a piccolo made by KAWAI Gakki nearly 40 years ago. It's likely a very rare instrument, as it's made entirely of nickel silver. Since it has been several years since it was last played, I would like you to consider this instrument on the premise that the buyer will need to replace the pads and make adjustments. The body and key mechanism have no scratches or damage, and I think it's in very good condition for its age. I've tried to avoid polishing it with a silver cloth, so there is some discoloration around the key mechanism, but I don't think it's a deep discoloration that won't come off with an overhaul. *In my personal opinion, this instrument allowed for a large volume of sound, but I found it difficult to play with deep expression. It has a deep, narrow, and sharp feel to the breath. I think it would be suitable for marching band or concert band.
