The Callender 1787 Model fife

SKU: N/A Category:

Description

William Callender was a wood and ivory turner in Boston during the latter 18th century and many of his fifes survive today in private collections, such as the original to this one to be found in the collection of the Manchester Historical Society in New Hampshire.  Like the Dillon/Cahusac it is nominally in C and plays alongside the other model but a thinner design and slightly tighter bore.  For something in Bb, please see the Yorktown Model.
