A profit one managed for instrument (5-5)
I believe the answer is:
forte-piano
'instrument' is the definition.
(forte-piano is a kind of instrument)
'a profit one managed' is the wordplay.
'managed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'profit'+'one'='aprofitone'
'aprofitone' is an anagram of 'FORTE-PIANO'.
'for' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
