Stay AWAY from the company. Order placed at the beginning of Nov and 4 months later the items have not been received. They haven't replied to any of the many emails and never answer the phone number... See more

Disgusting company

Disgusting company, shop elsewhere. We purchased a flute case online on 10/12 and it never arrived. No correspondence from them so we had to call them on 21/12 to be told the flute bag wasn’t in stock and they were just waiting to see if it came back in stock. No apology, nothing. They only thing they could offer was a refund. As this was part of a Christmas gift this left a lot of running around to get an alternative on time. It’s 27/12 and still no refund, have had to escalate through PayPal.

Avoid this shop

Ordered a Yamaha violin for my daughter's birthday. Violin didn't turn up, so contacted shop who told me that violin would take 30+ days to arrive. Asked for refund, but they didn't refund payment, so had to use Paypal payment dispute service to get a refund. No communications from shop or an apology. I guess they have cash flow problems. Avoid.

Brought Stentor case but it is fake

Brought Stentor case but it is fake. The real Stentor cases have a metal logo on the case and also the inside protective cover has the Stentor logo on it.

Update: Used for 6 months and stuff has fallen off and also started to fray. Quality is poor.

Hi Michael, thank you for your feedback here.

We must assure you that all Stentor cases are ordered in directly from Stentor themselves so we wouldn't expect any issues like this.

Please note we have found that not all cases that come in from Stentor have their logo, I have just checked a few Violin cases and found no logos on them.

Feel free to contact us again if you have any further questions.

Fast reliable service

Fast reliable service. Always seem to have the item I want in stock so I get it really quickly. The first place I look for musical things I need as the price is always very competitive. I would recommend them to anyone.

Ordered 'in stock' book

Ordered 'in stock' book on Friday, despatch seems to have been on following Monday. £3.50 p&p I hoped would mean a same day turnaround. Book arrived on day needed but not before causing some anxiety to pupil.
