A PASSION FOR EXCELLENCE
For over 35 years Mark Chudnow Woodwinds has been selling new and used instruments. During that time we have discovered that often when a used instrument is sent out for trial to a prospective buyer the instrument is rejected due to poor condition or disrepair, giving an unfair impression of the horn’s capabilities. Instruments on MCW’s Elite Used Instrument List are guaranteed to give the best possible impression, allowing the buyer to fully appreciate the instrument’s true value and excellence. And, of course, each horn is backed by MCW's One Year Warranty*.
