a little while ago I posted this message:

Hello, does anyone have a Martin piccolo they'd like to sell? I
studied with Armando Ghitalla and he had one that had the sweetest
sound I have ever heard from a piccolo. When I told him I wanted to
buy it he said I was number 50 on the list.... :( Everywhere in the
world I go I check junk shops and garage sales looking for one, but so
far no luck in 17 years....
Please make my day!

I've had no replies!!! :-(
So, I will up the ante... I'm willing to pay a lot more than value for
such a horn... if anyone has one or knows where one can be found,
PLEASE let me know!
Thanks,
Ken

If you're willing to part with a fair amount of green... I suggest you try a Schilke
P5-4 before you buy anything. That should at least give you a reference. KM.

I know you want a Martin, but would you considera Schertzer 4v rotor
piccolo tpt? If so, e-mail br...@powerup.com.au as we have one in stock.
