"Nobody except me is in export of czech musical instgruments so long anymore. My name is Jirina Michlova, came to export of musical instruments in 1969.
At that time the export company was Musicexport. Artia was state company exported instruments till 1967.
The bow instruments and guitars from 1949 produced Cremona and exported all over the world including England under label Cremona, in years 1952-1962 under label Lignaton which was exporting company Ligna before Artia, in years 1962-1967 under label Artia, from 1968 it was Musicexport and
this is the time I remember by myself, to England was label B&H 400 to company Boosey & Hawkes for bow instruments and label Tatra for guitars sent to Rosetti.

In 1992 Cremona was privatised and came the new name Strunal which exports now under label Josef Jan Dvorak (bow instruments) and Strunal or Amada (guitars). Export is now going from Strunal directly without any other agent-company.

In case you have other questions do not hesitate co contact me again, with pleasure I help you.
My best regards
Strunal - Mrs.Jirina Michlova - chief of export"
