I was burglarized
on Tuesday, March 25 2008 in Portland, Oregon. My Maestro bassoon was one of
the items stolen. It is the first and only that I owned :( I purchased it on
ebay new from a dealer in Houston. It is (I believe) Chinese made. I don't
have the serial number, unfortunately. It was in its case with a blue lining
and case-cover. There was a blonde reed case with 6 reeds in the outer pocket,
as well as a bassoon mute, seat strap, crutch, cork grease and two bocals. ANY
help recovering my bassoon would be appreciated; I am just sick from the loss
as it took me 15 years to be able to buy this instrument. Any relevant
information, call 503-206-9088 or email
mikeyboypdx@hotmail.com. Thank you.
