While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Excellent Clarinet, our daughter loves it.

They're a bit dearer than some of the offerings available through other websites, but the quality of the instrument is worth the extra price, especially with the brand being the choice of our LEA's music service.
Just under £200 for a Clarinet with a sturdy case and a few cleaning/care essentials, I placed the order on the 9th of July and went with the free delivery option (2-5 days). The clarinet arrived today (11th July). It was wrapped in bubble wrap and then in a protective box; it arrived in perfect condition.

I was really impressed with the ease of purchase and options available.
Dispatch/delivery was quicker than I expected.
The e-mail updates about the progress of my order were spot on.
