Web: www.nemc.com.NEMC offers music merchants a unique no-fee turn-key rental program that removes the dealer’s operational burdens yet enables the dealer to offer a customized, high-quality, profitable rental program with no capital investment in inventory. The NEMC Rental Program removes from the dealer the steep capital requirements, high operation costs, extensive service and repair responsibilities, and the complicated, intense legal requirements of offering rental contracts to the public. Under the NEMC program a dealer receives an inventory of new and like-new name-brand instruments complete with accessories, ready for rental. NEMC supplies an inventory based on the size of the dealer’s rental program, and additional inventory is sent throughout the year as the dealer needs it, all at NEMC’s expense. If a new dealer already has rental inventory, NEMC will purchase it from the dealer as it is rented to a customer, thus freeing up cash for the dealer. Each instrument’s rental documents are customized for each affiliate according to the often strict laws and requirements of their respective state or territory. NEMC also works with the dealer to create a custom, competitive, and profitable price schedule for the affiliate’s individual marketplace.NEMC maintains one of the largest staffs of skilled repair technicians dedicated only to rental instrument service. Free hands-on instrument repair training is available to all affiliates in NEMC’s New Jersey repair center with one-on-one private instruction.Motivational mailings to parents and students on behalf of the affiliate, the billing and collecting of rental payments and delinquent accounts, along with the Platinum Plan Plus to increase commission percentage and the Annual Rental Bonus Plan for cash bonuses all add to the rental program of choice for discerning dealers nationwide. “Often imitated, never duplicated.”"

Model PT2, $39.95, nicknamed the “Bare Bones,” is bone colored, has no backlight or carrying case included. Intellitouch: The Lifetime Tuner.™ The CenterPitch™ Universal Model CP2, $34.95, brand new for 2003, is a marvel of engineering with its tiny dual ball-and-socket clamp design that attaches easily to instrument bells and pipes of any size, as well to the violin family instruments. The one-handed, easy on-easy off design teaches beginners of brass, woodwind and bowed stringed instrument to learn how to hear intonation in noisy environments such as band halls, stages and practice rooms, as well as helps professionals to unobtrusively and quickly tune up their instruments prior to performance without interference from other instruments, and without the inconvenience of needing microphones or wire attachments. CenterPitch: its Freedom.The Beatnik Rhythmic Analyzer™ is the first new idea in musical timing practice since the metronome 200 years ago. For drummers of all levels who want to improve their timing and rhythmic accuracy, Beatnik’s interactive visual timing and rhythmic feedback is a totally new concept in timing and rhythmic practice. It is smartly designed, totally user-friendly, and the feedback is so fun and engaging that drummers just can’t stop playing on it. Most importantly, the results are amazing. It’s wild how you can feel yourself getting better faster with Beatnik’s visual feedback. Plus, you’ll have the hard scores to prove it. Beatnik: The Future of Time."

Web: www.sagamusic.com, Richard L. Keldsen, president. “Saga, The Source” accurately describes this company. Founded in 1974, Saga revolutionized the music trades as the first large-scale manufacturer and importer of high-quality banjos, mandolins, and guitars. The company has also grown to become one of the world’s leading suppliers of bowed and fretted instruments, as well as by supporting its instrument product lines with bags, cases, and other related parts and accessories. Saga’s representatives have traveled throughout the world often to obscure, remote destinations in search of skilled proven manufacturing sources to meet the company’s quality requirements and supply demands. Many members of Saga’s international staff come from the ranks of various string ensembles and bands. Their first- hand experience, years of traditional musical education, and keen working knowledge of string and fretted instruments, enable them to provide the best service possible and to contribute to the design specifications and construction of Saga’s instrument lines. Focusing initially on the Bluegrass, Old-Time Traditional, and Folk Music markets, Saga has successfully established itself as an internationally known company and continues to develop and market highly successful, quality- made, competitively priced products, appealing to Saga’s original markets as well as to the traditional School Music and Suzuki markets. With 2007 marking the company’s 26th year as a pioneer in the growing market of orchestral string instruments, Saga continually raises the bar for expectations of what a superb hand- carved, solid-wood instrument at very accessible prices should be by leading the way with such brands as Cremona, Anton Breton, H. Siegler, F. Cervini, H. Siegler, and J. LaSalle all favorites with knowledgeable teachers and dealers everywhere. Saga is also the premier source for popular fretted instrument brands like the original Saga banjos, banjo kits, Saga electric guitar and bass kits, a full line of Mahalo ukuleles, Legendary Gold Star banjos, America’s favorite Kentucky mandolins, Trinity College guitars, Celtic-style mandolins and concertinas, Regal resophonic wood- body and metal-body Duolian and Tricone-style guitars, J. Navarro Spanish-inspired clasical guitars, Valencia student classical guitars, Durango Vintage Series steel-string guitars, Gitane Gypsy-Jazz guitars featuring signature instruments for some of today’s hottest players (like John Jorgenson, Lulo Reinhardt, and Stephane Wrembel, Jan Akkerman and Dorado Schmidt to name a few,) and the world renowned line of Blueridge guitars, supported by legendary musicians in the fields of Bluegrass and mainstream popular music throughout the world. Saga’s bowed and fretted instrument brands are supported by a wide selection of high-quality parts and accessories with names line Superior, Golden Gate, Boulder, and TraveLite cases. "

Web: www.ferreestools.com. Clifford Ferree, president.The company specializes in repair tools and supplies for band instrument repair technicians. Cliff Ferree has an excellent background in the repair field. After his graduation from the Conn Repair School in 1946, he established his own repair shop. This grew into a large retail business which was later sold due to the expansion of the tool business. In 1956 Ferree bought out the repair tool departments of both Conn and Leblanc. Using these tools as a nucleus, Ferree did some extensive redesigning and engineering and published his first complete catalog in 1957. The tool business moved to larger quarters in 1965, and in 1967 a large addition to that building was completed. In 1970, after becoming dissatisfied with foreign saxophone pads, Cliff Ferree designed several unique assembly machines, made complete sets of precision dies, and began manufacturing saxophone pads.Cliff Ferree attributes the rapid growth of his business to the fact that he was active in the repair field and realized the needs of other repair shops. The company is still constantly working on improvements and shorter steps to quicker, easier, and more efficient repair methods. This has resulted in the constant development of new tools. A person using these tools can complete difficult and complicated jobs more simply, accurately, and in much less time. All these special tools are precision made and quality controlled under the supervision of Steve Willbur and Curtis Ferree.The company was originally organized as Ferree’s Band Instrument Tools and Supplies, Inc., because Cliff Ferree thought that the name should symbolize the products. After 40 years, however, he felt that the “Ferree” name had become synonymous with quality band instrument repair tools and supplies and that customers would appreciate a shorter name; so the company name was changed to Ferree’s Tools, Inc.A large catalog is available free, upon request."

Bechstein firm was established in 1853 by Carl Bechstein in Berlin. Since that time Bechstein pianos have been manufactured by Germany’s finest craftsmen and played by the world’s great pianists. Through the quality of its grand pianos, Bechstein acquired a name famous throughout the world for its superior performance.Today Bechstein upright and grand pianos are to be found in some of the finest homes and most prestigious concert halls in the world.In addition to modern grand cabinets in standard ebony and mahogany polish, Bechstein has introduced a number of exotic woods and finishes, including Vavona polish (a member of the fir family appearing much like birds-eye maple), Moabi polish, Burl walnut polish, Madrone polish, and Bubinga polish. These exotic finishes are especially attractive in “classic” cabinets with rounded/fluted legs and specially carved music racks and lyres. Another particularly beautiful piano in several models is the mahogany polish with many inlaid patterns. Many other satin woods are available.In 1999 Bechstein introduced the new generation of professional C. Bechstein grand pianos completely new scale designs that will meet the taste and requirements of the most demanding pianists worldwide. The new concert grand D-280 is the flagship and is joined in the C. Bechstein lineup by the C-234, B-212, M/P-192, and L167.C. Bechstein has introduced a new academy line of instruments made in Germany under the marque of Bechstein. These pianos are designed to compete in design and price point with other premium pianos from Europe and the United States. They are available in 160cm, 190cm, 208cm, and 228cm sizes. The smaller sizes will make them the ideal piano for the finest American homes and educational institutions where size is an issue.The ProBechstein series of classic upright models includes the Balance, Avance, Ars Nova, and Concert Eight. These vertical models combine outstanding appearance with superior touch and tone. In January of 2007, Bechstein began distributing its products in North America through Bechstein-America, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of C Bechstein Pianofortefabrik.AG., Germany, and in May of 2007, C Bechstein Pianofortefabrik AG purchased the controlling interest in the Bohemia piano factory located in the Czech Republic where it now builds the W. Hoffmann line of grand and vertical pianos."

1,786 WALTER PIANO CO. "25416 County Route 6, Elkhart, IN 46514. Tels: (574) 266-0615 and (574) 674-9486. Fax: (574) 266-0889. Charles R. Walter, president and general manager.In 1970 Charles R. Walter, who had played a major role in the work done at Conn, purchased this piano company. His intention from the very start was to combine technological advances with his own extensive engineering background and mechanical ability to produce the finest quality pianos in the market. Upon taking control, he immediately cut back production to ensure careful attention to detail and to quality standards. The company’s growth since that time has been specifically directed toward improving and maintaining quality. Walter Piano Co. is a family owned and operated company.Being an instrument of real musical expression, the piano must also be an instrument of exceptional beauty, expressive of the aesthetic values of the home in which it is placed. The Walter piano designers pay particular attention to both traditional styling and the best furniture trends. Expert design is then combined with careful and painstaking craftsmanship to produce pianos with beauty characteristic of the finest home furnishings.The results of these efforts are the Charles R. Walter Studio Console and Studio pianos. Charles Walter has given these pianos his own name as the Signature of Quality in order to emphasize his personal interest in assuring and maintaining the highest quality in design and in production standards. These pianos, introduced in the summer of 1975, are acclaimed to be among the finest-quality vertical pianos on the market today. The 43” console and the 45” studio are noted for the 48” Ao speaking length, 56”x 37” (14.5 square feet) solid Sitka Spruce soundboard, full-size studio direct blow action, and the W-48 scale, designed to incorporate the best in harmonicity characteristics.Other features that point to the quality of this piano include the cross-banded and laminated 29-ply Delignit pin block, five solid Sitka Spruce back posts (2”x3”), back construction to meet school specifications, and five-ply lumber core construction throughout.The 6’4” Walter Grand Piano was added to the company’s piano line in 1996. The piano features a Renner action, Kluge keys, and an all-hard-maple rim and frame construction. It is available traditionally styled in ebony, mahogany, cherry, oak, and walnut finishes. A Chippendale-style is available in cherry and mahogany. The grands are handcrafted instruments with direct production oversight and involvement by Walter family members. Custom features make construction of the Walter Grand similar to the methods used in restoring fine instruments of vintage quality."
