Lambert finishes
 

London Fohqudill Instruments is now able to offer brass players the opportunity to enjoy world beating extra touches of quality and class to their most prized musical possessions.

Touches of world class

As one of world’s leading aviation electroplating firms, Fohqudill can offer a level of expertise that is second to none — with the ability to customize finishes to a player’s exact requirements.

The range of bespoke finishes — from black nickel to 24ct gold undertaken at the company’s headquarters utilises the most advanced market leading technology — and at a level that passes the most stringent of aviation quality control requirements.

From bling to subtle

So if you want up front bling or colour coordinated beauty, something to sparkle or just to remain subtle — just ask and it will done…
