ABOARD REPRESENTATION


S


ince being set up in 1981 by Peter and Manny McClelland, Gremlin Music has become,


without doubt, the UK’s leading distributor of folk, traditional and acoustic musical instruments. The supplier has a number of successful in-house brands in its portfolio, including the Ashbury range of mandolins, banjos and various other uncommon categories of stringed instruments, most of which are designed by Phil Davidson and made in Vietnam. Gremlin is also very proud of its


whistle offering, which includes Chieftain and Dixon as the major players in this particular field. As well as being the UK supplier


for a plethora of global brands, Gremlin also distributes its own lines, such as Atlas, which covers the areas of world percussion, Chinese instruments and Indian products such as sitars and tables, which are currently being introduced to the lineup. Add to that handheld percussion, tambourines, djembes and strong products such as Katho


cajons and you can begin to understand why Gremlin is such a popular option for those seeking more unusual musical apparatus. A small team of three is


responsible for the general running of the company, which takes extra effort in establishing a personal relationship with each customer. Enquiries are always dealt with


straight away and they even try and maintain that each customer will always deal with the same person on the end of the phone. Another current short-term plan is to expand the Antonio Carvalho range, a brand of fretted instruments named after their creator in Portugal and made with the use of traditional methods. With the unrivalled specialist knowledge it offers in the sphere of traditional and folk instruments, Gremlin Music is certainly top of the pile when it comes to the weird and wonderful side of MI and considering how well this sector is doing of late, it’s not a bad position to be in at the moment.
