Great service and assistance with this international purchase. The instrument was in tremendous condition even for a B stock purchase. A beautiful and well manufactured work of craftsmanship . For the price this is an exceptional horn. I can’t believe the workmanship and quality of this instrument. I played Mirafone and Besson brands and this instrument is of equal stature. If was well shipped and only took 3days from Germany to my doorstep. Thomann made this purchase almost effortless. This is the way business should be done. Email Responses were very prompt even with the difference in time zones. Great instrument, sales service and assistance.
