Takumi Socket, Gold Plated

Thank you for viewing my listing.

This is a rare Takumi Socket that is no longer in production.
Simply replacing your oboe's original socket with this one made the sound carry further and I felt a noticeable increase in power with less effort.

I purchased it used. The previous owner reportedly used it on a Marigaux.
I used it on my Loree.
I am selling it because I have sold the Loree it was attached to.

As I am the second owner, the condition of the plating, etc., cannot be described as pristine, but I believe it is still in good enough condition to be fully usable.
If you are concerned, please consider having the gold plating redone by a plating shop after purchase.

I am open to price negotiations within reason, but as this is a valuable socket, I would be happy if someone who truly appreciates its worth could use it.

It is difficult for me to respond to inquiries about compatibility with specific instrument manufacturers.
