Hi there! Im buying my first piccolo, and im looking for the best choices in Piccolos. I hope some of you would give me some information reguarding these horns.
I have two amazing horns to pick from. At amazing prices to get them at. Its pretty much a matter of which one is the better.
Kanstul 920 vs Stomvi Elite
Let me know please! _________________ Yamaha Bobby Shew "Custom Z" YTR-8310z (Bb)

I can't speak about the piccolo, but I can say that I play a Stomvi S3 big bell Bb trumpet, and it's off-the-map great. _________________ 2006 Buick Lucerne |

Or because not many people buy them?
(Said having liked every Kanstul I've played, however briefly) |

I like them both and own a Kanstul 920.
Based on your signature, why not consider a Yamaha? The ones I've played were incredible, though I'm less impressed with the short-bell model. The 3+1 (used to be the 9820C) is the easiest playing picc I've ever tried. _________________ "I'm an engineer, which means I think I know a whole bunch of stuff I really don't."
