Glotin Staples: 47mm

Description

Due to Glotin in the process of selling their business, we have a limited inventory of staples left. Please, our current limit is 6 tubes (silver, brass or a mix) per customer. We are open to exchange or accept returns on tubes.

Over the years, Mr. Ferrillo’s mandrel, made in the late 60’s by Glotin, has been a good gyroscope: the opening at the top has a lovely elliptical shape – not too round, not too small, not too large. This is needed to create the Goldilocks situation where the tubes are not so large as to cause noise and sharpness, and not so small as to cause choked, flat upper registers. We have them both in silver and brass and they are 47mm in length. Our customers would do well to know that he uses brass staples just as often as, if not more than our silver staples. Linda Strommen at Indiana University uses exclusively our brass staples as well. Based on the incredibly high standards of these two oboists, you can be assured that our brass staples are excellent.
