Hi All,
I am looking to buy an alto cornamuse. I am new to the instrument and looking for recommendations for high quality maker. I am looking at the following sites:

Any firsthand recommendations appreciated.
Thanks!

That last option of yours, the “Glastonbury Pipe”, looks VERY similar to an instrument I bought, new, for about half the price, from eBay seller quality1trader. They don’t seem to have any stock at the moment.
Works … “does what it says on the box” … unnecessarily long and heavy, in my opinion, but probably good value for money in today’s market.
Also for your consideration, but without any comment or recommendation, http://www.earlymusicshop.com/product.aspx/en-GB/1002798-ems-loriman-pipe-in-f-kit
