Gary, sorry can't tell you the US distributors. But they don't seem to
carry the whole line. When I wanted a gold-plated Bonade (Simon
Aldrich--you there?) inverted ligature, I couldn't find one through US
mail order stores in the US, and two said "the US distributor denied it
existed". But I did get it through Twigg Music in Montreal, 514-843-3593 I
gather they order it from Europe, but I'm not sure.

Martin
