My partner bought a Woodwind piccolo last year. It is in fact a Gemeinhardt - the warranty card that
came with it was from Gemeinhardt, and the case is also Gemeinhardt. I recall that the instrument itself
does NOT say it's a Gemeinhardt - if anyone's interested, I can check it this evening when I get home.

Brasswind was mentioned as one of those marketers who sells instruments under its own name that are made mostly in Taiwan. The column is interesting reading.
Apparently the tradition, if you want to call it that, of selling under various marks instruments made in one factory goes back far into the last century. The
instruments probably varied in quality then as they do now.
