I bought a student model Blessing flute and was shocked at the sound quality. It outperforms professional model Yamahas in sound quality and looks. It was a complete shot in the dark when I bought it and I've never regretted it.

Just purchased the ML1 silver. Beautiful sounding horn that just gets better with time. Still wearing in the valves........There are horns out there costing 2~3 times as much that I have tried and I have to say the ML1 simply sounds better and lets face it, its the sound that counts........If you are looking for a horn with excellent tonal qualities that encourages various playing techniques and has that personal touch, it does not get any better than this........

I have had an EK Blessing Alpha BK trumpet for 27 years. It plays better today than it did when it was new. I've played other trumpets, Yamaha, Selmer and Conn, but my baby, is by far the best ever!

I have had a copper-bell B-8 for a week and think it is the finest horn I've ever played including the 1967 Olds i just replaced. I play in a brass esemble, two concert bands and a big band jazz group and find the B-8 perfect for all occasions. Thank you. -- Lesley Phillips, Marysville, Oh

I was looking for a professional model but after
thinking about it, why pay thousands for a new one or hundreds for
an older model? So I opted for an entry model instead (B-125). It
was brand new and I got an unbelievable price! I would put this
horn up against anything else I have ever played. It's beautiful
and plays like a dream. Are you sure it's an entry level horn? What
a great value!

I am the player of a musical instrument. It is
interested in your company. It is a Japanese. Did your company
provide CONN with the musical instrument a long time ago? A
trombone resembles CONN very much, is now peevish, and is unclear
English. I'm sorry.Excuse me, a reply is glad by mail. kado5468@leto.eonet.ne.jp

Seit nun mehr als 20 Jahren spiele ich eine
Blessing Posaune B88r. Dieses Instrument ist wunderbar. Trotz
hartem Einsatz in Big Bands, Orchestern und auch als Solo
Instrument in der Klassik, sieht die Posaune fast aus wie
neu und war bisher nur einmal
zur Durchsicht bei einem Instrumentenbauer. Leider haben wir in
Deutschland keinen Händler mehr. Alles gute und baut weiter solch
tolle Instrumente. Peter D.

"In 1940 I started playing a trumpet, in 1942 my Dad
purchased a Blessing Super Artist Cornet for me which I played through high
school. I still have that Blessing Cornet and it still has a great tone. In
March of 1999, I started buying broken and dented trumpets, reconditioning
them and reselling them. At first I did a lot of Olds Ambassadors, Yamaha,
Getzen, and some Blessings. Today, I specialize in reconditioned Blessing
Trumpets, not because I played one but because they are quality horns, easy
to play with good tone and nice crisp valve action."-Ralph H. Crone, Crone

"We just received our first trial order of a student
trumpet and trombone from Blessing. The fit and finish is excellent and the
instrument is really easy to play. We look forward to carrying the Blessing
line this fall"-Glen Osness, Bristol Grove Music

"Blessing horns are the best value in the industry.
Blessing horns are a great investment for students on a budget who are
interested in getting the best value that they can for their money.
Blessing horns produce a beautiful dark, rich and warm resonant tone. I
have been very pleased with Blessing horns in the studio, as an
instrumental trumpet soloist , and as a marching band equipment manager and
instructor."-----Vision Quest and Daystar Recording Artist Chaplain Michael

"I played trumpet all through school, managed to make
several all-county and all-region bands, and am an avid ameteur player.
When I graduated high school and a friend wanted me to start playing some
Jazz with him for kicks, I went out looking for a horn to replace my old
Conn. I went to the local music shop, and found a Blessing Ml-1G. Wow! This
is a great horn! I've seen and played a lot of professional horns in my
day, and have a wide variety of mouthpeices and mutes to suit whatever
occasion I run into, and the Blessing works equally well with all of them,
and has a great appearance to boot. I look forward to future purchases from
Blessing, and I recommend any ameteur player on the market such as myelf to
take a look at the professional line Blessing produces."---Trey

"My two oldest sons, ages 16 and 12, both play trombone.
When my oldest son was ready to upgrade from a student instrument to a
large F-attachment trombone, I tried several of the other major brands and
ended up buying a Blessing B88R for him. The horn plays wonderfully and is
very well made and finished, with a fast, smooth slide action. If anything
happened to my main trombone, I wouldn't hesitate to play the B88R at one
of my own community orchestra concerts. It's that good! We looked to
Blessing again when the 12-year-old took up the trombone and are very
pleased with the B128 that we bought last year. When the time comes for him
to move up to a bigger horn, Blessing trombones will be at the top of our
shopping list. Keep up the good work!"---Don Bilger
