Community ad: Chinese Zither 古筝 for sale
I would like to sell the instrument with 2 stands, carrying case & cover cloth for $569, price is negotiable.
I bought this high quality instrument for my daughter and paid about $1200 total for the instrument and accessories.
She moves to the west coast, so I have to sell it.
If interested, please contact Charis, a member of NWCS Chorus, at charisw@gmail.com or 914-874-3102.
Thanks.
