The Builder is a dedication to the creative process and to those who create - whatever that might be - from idea to construction to the unveiling of the creation. Hammering, metallic sounds evoke working with something physical - perhaps some kind of flying machine. After many hours toiling, brainstorming and incubating in the workshop, the inventor finally lets their creation fly. Celebrate the creative drive with The Builder. Expressive melodies, bold harmonies and creative use of percussion will allow your musicians to shine with many opportunities for expressive and dynamic playing.

Performance Assurance
Buying a new instrument is an exciting event and we want to ensure that every instrument we sell comes exactly how the manufacturer intended it to be. That is why Long & McQuade performs a quality control check for every stringed, brass, and woodwind instrument over $99 ordered online at Long-McQuade.com.
Our team of experienced staff will unbox your instrument and perform a detailed inspection to ensure it leaves our warehouse looking and playing great with our QC card signed and dated for your peace of mind.
We work hard to source the best instruments from around the world from the finest brands. It is important to us that you are completely satisfied with your new instrument purchase from day one onwards.
