Students of the Month in 2002

On Our Line of Castle Instruments:
"The valves react more efficiently and with quicker movement while maintaining a full sound. I was seeking a more professional trumpet and after playing this Silver Castle model, I was sold!

On Castle Instruments: "Castle saxes are great for classical and jazz! The key setup is more like a professional instrument, even on the Castle student instruments. We recently purchased a large amount of Castle brass and woodwind instruments including a beautiful oboe. I just love the tenor sax as I'm a sax player and I even played the Castle student sax in my last performance instead of my professional Selmer. I just love the Castle's intonation. Their student and intermediate instruments play like professional instruments, and not like any other student level instruments from any major brand. The low and high notes are rich and have a beautiful tone. The quality metal used is great and produces a meaty thud as all the pads come seated well."

On Castle Instruments:"When holding a Castle student or intermediate instrument, you can feel how heavy and sturdy it is. They also create darker tones and make your band sound more mature. Most other major brand student models are lightweight and produce a nasal-like sound. Castle instruments are great in all ranges! They are very well-balanced, well-constructed and I highly recommend them. I wish every student in Oxford played a Castle instrument!"
