Can anyone recommend any shops that sell trombones in either London or Cambridge?
(Or any where else in that sort of area). I already know John Myatt's but they will be closed the week that I will be there during the Christmas holidays. I have also just found Phil Parker's in Crawford Street by doing a search on here but they are currently updating their website so I don't know exactly what they sell. |

This is the definitive brass instrument shop in London, and it's well worth a visit if you're into your brass instruments kerioboe. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Phil Parker in London every time. Brilliant staff. But do be careful if you go by car, the Traffic Wardens are ruthless!

I agree with the above recommendation for Phil Parker's. If you phone them up and tell them you're going to pop in, they'll be even more helpful.

Yep definitely Phil Parkers really helpful and patient staff!
Took my son at half term to try trumpet mouthpieces - two hours later, we came out with a new mouthpiece and a new Eb trumpet! Can't believe what a difference the mouthpiece has made to his playing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
