Lovely for a beginner. Found a wonderful instructor and started.

The stentor 1500 (aka student ii) is a fine instrument. It is an affordable instrument for students to use.

The packaging was two crushed up pieces of brown paper. Sent back for a refund the same day. Now i have to go get it repaired. Manufacturer or seller is circulating the user and returned items.
