Purchased for middle school music class, but apparently wasn't used much. There are no issues with the case or the instrument itself. Wiped down with alcohol. The child's name was printed on the back of the instrument, but it has been sanded off. It was used by a boy. Will be shipped via Yu-Packet Post. As the thickness is at the limit, it will be shipped in a paper bag without cushioning material. Water damage prevention measures will be taken. ■Brand: Aulos ■Model Name: 309A ■Type: Alto Recorder ■Range: f1 - g3 ■Size: 47.7cm ■Material: ABS resin ■Accessories: Soft case, thumb rest, cleaning rod
