A rare, Chu Berry model C-Melody with a goldwash bell. It was repaired and repadded elsewhere and has some signs of repairs, and was even lacquered in a past life. This isn't all bad as it often protects the silver plating over the decades. It has an alto-style neck and a new case.

PADS: repadded elsewhere with tan pads and noyak star reso for lower projection.

CASE: New, hard case!

MOUTHPIECE: Conn Eagle C-Melody mouthpiece included.

I may recommend minor attention to the key height setting on the stacks (I would offer cork sanding needs; just remind me at the time of purchase).
