CAVALLARO RECORDER ROLLS                   Top of Page

please note: all measurements, patterns and colors are approximate

70SR2

Floral Tapestry

Cavallaro covers are made from 8 oz, 100% waterproof 420 denier nylon duck material. Inside each cover is a thick polyester shearling, which both insulates and pads the instrument.

While many professional musicians prefer black covers, we realize that many people like to add a little color to their lives. Our color choices are black, navy, forest green, pewter gray, burgundy, orchid (purple), brown, royal blue and teal. Tapestry choices are "cats" and "southwestern".  Cutting fees for colors are $15 extra, above the cost of the roll.

Quodlibet FHRED instruments supports

The FHRED instrument support is a telescoping peg with an attachment for the thumb rest of your instrument on one end and a rubber foot on the other. The telescoping sections of the FHRED allow easy adjustment, extending to the length needed for playing and collapsing to a minimum length for storage and transport. Because the FHRED attaches to neck strap loop of your instrument and the base is placed on the seat of your chair or in a SAMI, nothing will interfere with the sound production of your instrument. It attaches to the neck strap loop, not the instrument. When a FHRED is used for playing in a seated position, it transfers the stresses which cause physical problems to the chair seat, not to some other part of your body. When a FHRED is used for playing standing, it transfers the stresses to a SAMI which attaches to a belt or sash around your waist so you never experience more force than the weight of your instrument.

These supports come in several sizes:

Short: 6.5 -- 12"

Long: 9 -- 17"

Extra Long: 12 -- 22"

and 3 models:

Student, Standard and Professional

Mighty Bright XtraFlex Duet Dual LED Music Stand Light

 

The Mighty Bright XtraFlex Duet Super LED. Music Light uses two specially-designed heads that spread light evenly, without any annoying hot spot to washout print and make your music hard to read. The twin, highly flexible arms are easy to position to put light in tight places, and they also make it very easy to fold the unit into a small package for easy storage. The Mighty Bright XtraFlex Duet is equipped with a base that allows the light to be used as either a clip-on or as a freestanding unit. This versatility makes the XtraFlex Duet perfect for lighting things other than music- racks, pedal setups on dimly lit stages and mixing boards will all benefit. Powered by three AAA batteries (not included).

I use this one all the time.  It is fairly bright and really does easily cover two pages. The batteries last a long time--I don't know how long since they haven't started to run our of juice yet, after about 10 hours of use.

                FUZZY SWABS FOR RECORDERS      Top of Page

 

 

 

I suggest you only use these for plastic instruments.

They tend to leave fuzz in the bore of wooden instruments.

Vigorously rub, then vacuum them before use to remove excess fuzz.

Ordering Information                                                                                                                                                Top of PageSubcontrabass recorder in Bb, by Adriana Breukink

Email, call or write me to order or discuss your needs.  You can't order from my web site--I like to discuss your order with you first.

Many people have told me how much they enjoy my bringing my ‘store’ of instruments to workshops so that they can try many different ones over the course of a few days.  This makes their decision-making process much easier. 

Obviously, when ordering by mail, I can’t send you my whole ‘store’ of instruments to try, but I do try to come as close as is reasonably possible.  All instruments can be ordered on approval.  I am happy to send out two or more instruments for you to compare.  For instance, I could send out two or three rosewood altos, or rosewood, pearwood, grenadilla and  boxwood altos for you to sample.  Then you can play them (please, no more than 15 minutes per day, just as if you were starting the breaking-in process), let your friends try or listen to them, and let a teacher try them.  This gives you some feedback on your choice, and gives you more confidence in your decision. 

I want you to be satisfied with your instrument, and feel under no obligation to buy it if you don’t like it.  A normal time for deciding is approximately one week.  I, of course, expect any returned instruments to be in like-new condition (see below).  Whether you decide to buy an instrument or not, all I ask is that you pay for shipping costs both ways.

Once you have decided on a purchase, I will bill you. 

Email, call or write me to order or discuss your needs.  You can't order from my web site--I like to discuss your order with you first.

 

I had an instrument returned that smelled of cigarette smoke.  The customer did not smoke, but a visitor did.  I haven't yet succeeded in removing the smell.  I can't sell a smoky instrument, so I do not want to send instruments on approval to households where people are allowed to smoke.  If a smoky-smelling (or mildew-smelling) instrument is returned to me, I will not accept it, and you will have bought it, since it is no longer in like-new condition.  In my experience, hardly any recorder players smoke, so this should be a rare occurrence.  So please, no smoke, mildew or lipstick, and brush your teeth before playing--all things you should do if the instrument were yours.  I hope you understand this policy.

 

I don't give out customer contact information to other companies.

 
I accept personal checks, money orders or cashiers checks.  
I accept Visa, MasterCard, and Discover. VisaMasterCard
