SOLD – This is one of several Center sets we’ve had in the shop over the years. This set was probably made in the years around 1900.  It appears to be African blackwood, though it may be ebony.

The stocks are replacements in African blackwood, using the original mounts.  One tenor drone projecting mount had a small chunk broken out of it, and it is visible in the pictures. However, this has since been filled. There is a small but stable split in one tenor drone ring.

These pipes displayed a subdued, mellow sound. They are quiet, they tune a bit low, and they are very steady.
