Wow! Hadn't heard that. Eastman's portfolio continues to grow. They acquired SE Shires several years ago, and all of the Shires Q series instruments are manufactured by Eastman using many Shires designs and those have been received well in the trombone community - and although I've never played one, the Q series euphoniums have been used by many of the DC area service band members, which shows they are clearly doing something right. Eastman also owns Haynes flutes and the world famous Bourgeois guitar company.- Scott

It will be interesting to see how they handle, specifically, the euphonium line.
They seem to keep the Eastman and Shires lines distinct. However, the Q41 was designed to directly compete with the 2900...so that will be interesting!Groups

Probably a smart business move by Eastman.- Scott
