I used the word objectively on purpose, because of course we all have our favourite maker who's work we admire, but to take personal opinion out of the equation , Alain Froment comes out on top.If we take his body of work in its entirety he has produced top quality instruments in all pitches, he worked in the most difficult material and from I've seen his instruments are out there, more than any other maker being played by some of the best pipers.myles wrote:On top? Not disagreeing with you but what do you think it is about Froment's work that gives it the edge?
Well said JeffJeff Cullen wrote:It's a good thing that a lot of others don't feel the same way, or your request for information about what the value this set might be would have no responses since there would be no information about what they sell for. I find it odd to post such a request on a public forum, but then not want to contribute information that makes the forum more useful for exactly what you used it for.
