No, they are one of those junk ebay piccolos. Stay clear away from them and do your self a favor, stick with the name brands that you can trust.

Barrington isn`t a junk Ebay brand. I haven`t tried their flutes, but their new student Oboes are all the rave now for offering low Bb and left hand F with decent tone and stable pitch for under $1000. Had it been out when I was Oboe shopping I could have saved $1000. My band mates got one and it plays VERY well for the price.

Yes, Thier Oboes play very well as I own one. I am actually about to buy one their piccolos for marching band this year and I have only heard good things about them. It also comes with a Split E which is a added plus!

Hope this helps, Shawn

Well, all I know is that there piccolos are junk. I had a chance to try one. Horrible intonation! The keys were so soft that they bent very easily. That is not something that I would ever recommend.
