Congratulations!

And now you have to play it in gently. You've got it at the right time of year to play it in as the humidity levels are high, but still don't play it for any more than 30 minutes at a time as it has to settle into being played, and then dry it out and always put it back in it's case afterwards instead of leaving it assembled. After a couple of weeks you can the increase the playing time by five minutes a day.

If it's the 'Duet' model (it'll have 'Duet' engraved on the back of the top joint), you can play it as long as you like as these have a plastic lined bore, but the regular 441 doesn't have a lined bore so has to be played in gently to avoid splitting.
