Purchasing a Kaval

Hi, all,

I play several different types of flutes and have been interested in learning the kaval for years. I've finally got more spare time, & want to purchase a kaval as soon as I can to begin learning this amazing instrument! I can't seem to find a place to purchase one where I can trust that the quality will be professional, in tune, etc. though.

Where or from who would you recommend purchasing a very good quality kaval? Also, what is the price range for these instruments?

I've seen kavals for sale on Ebay, but not very much elsewhere, & I don't know how these instruments play. I definitely want to find something I can play for years to come! :)

Thanks so much!

    I've always had good luck with Lark In the Morning. The best part is that if you call them and ask their opinion on any of their instruments, they will give it to you straight. Even if it's a bad review of their own stock. (www.larkinam.com)
    I purchased my current bansuri from them and am very happy with it. Right now I am eye-ing up a large kaval that they have.
    Much luck in your search!
