For sale: A Schreiber S16 bassoon made in Germany. This model is an intermediate instrument aimed at amateur orchestra and wind band players, characterized by its rich sound and stable intonation. This is a rare, glossy Schreiber, and it's in very good condition. I used it in a performance just recently (early May), so it's ready to play immediately. I'm selling it because I've upgraded my instrument. I originally received it from an acquaintance in almost new condition, and I've used it for about 8 years. It's easy to tune and very comfortable to play. 【Instrument Overview】 • Model: Schreiber S16 • Country of Manufacture: Germany • Material: Maple (high-grade wood) • Key Count: Multi-key specification, similar to higher-end models • Condition: Beautiful condition both inside and out, adjusted Compared to the S13, it has more keys, and features roller keys and a left-hand thumb key, making it a satisfying instrument for players of intermediate level and above. 【Condition and Maintenance】 • Overall balance adjusted in February 2025, and it's in good condition for immediate use. • Pads and springs are in good condition, and the keys operate smoothly. • There are no noticeable major damages to the body or metal parts (please forgive minor scratches and age-related wear). • The cork condition of the body joints is good, with airtightness. 【Accessories】 • Genuine hard case (interior: red velvet, exterior in relatively good condition) • Bocal (two bocals, #1 and #2) 【Additional Information】 Currently, new bassoons of a similar class (e.g., Fox 222D) cost over 1.7 million yen including tax, making this a very cost-effective option for those looking for an intermediate instrument that can be used for a long time, from the beginning. This model is no longer in production, and it may become difficult to obtain in the future. 【Shipping】 • Shipping Method: Yamato Takkyubin (estimated 160-180 size, anonymous) • Shipping Time: Within one week of purchase Although it is a used item, it is in good condition and ready to play.
