Sadly I am not familiar enough with musical instruments to be able to identify exactly what this is, it was inherited with a selection of crumhorns. I can confirm that it makes a sound when blown that is similar to the crumhorns I have listened to via the internet, which makes me think that it is of the same family, and is complete with a reed.

There is some cosmetic wear and the brass fittings are in need of a good polish, otherwise is in good order. Please note – I have four other Crumhorns for sale along with replacement reeds please see my other items.
