We all know that no good deed goes unpunished, which means the poor guy is destined somehow to get his first negative feedback over this horn.

If a few people read this and are warned away from bad piccs as a result, this seller will have done the world a real favor. Now if he or she would only buy one of those (presumably) awful flugels and then put it on ebay to warn people away from them as well!

I can see the feedback comment now:

"Quick shipping (guy couldn't get rid of it fast enough) and exactly as described (a piece of ****)"

You just have to love it. I wish had shown a picture of the hunk on metal mouthpiece.

Add a treble hook and you got a terrific salmon getter.
