Who Elcoda serves
Elcoda works with beginners and professional musicians, music students, teachers, parents of young musicians, music schools, orchestras and dealers.
We understand that the requirements for an instrument or accessory depend on the musician’s level, the intended use and the specific task. For this reason, our recommendations take into account not only price and technical specifications, but also the customer’s actual needs.
We pay particular attention to professional musicians and organisations requiring rare instruments, specialist components or products not usually available from large general music retailers.
Demanding and unusual orders
One of Elcoda’s strengths is sourcing products that are difficult to find in conventional music stores. These may include rare instruments, specialist cases, tuning machines, spare parts, luthier supplies or professional accessories.
We help clarify the requirements, identify a suitable model, check availability with the manufacturer or supplier and arrange international delivery. When a required item is not included in the standard catalogue, we consider the possibility of an individual order.
This approach is particularly important for professional musicians, orchestras, music schools, instrument makers and dealers requiring precise technical specifications.

Elcoda is an authorised dealer for a number of established manufacturers of musical instruments and accessories, including Kremona, Jakob Winter, Pirastro and Buffet Crampon.

Worldwide deliveries
Elcoda serves customers worldwide and arranges international delivery of musical instruments, accessories, components and products available to order.
