UNSPSC 60131229 Musette is a Commodity code. State and local school districts are the primary buyers under this code, soliciting new band and orchestra instruments — saxophones, clarinets, oboes, flutes, trumpets, trombones, French horns, tubas, euphoniums, violins, violas, cellos, double basses, timpani, marimbas, xylophones, snare drums, bass drums, cymbals, and pianos — along with cases, stands, bows, storage racks, and related consumables and accessories. Solicitations span purchase of instruments in student, intermediate, and professional grades from established manufacturers including Yamaha, Selmer, Jupiter, and Pearl, typically structured as term contracts with unit pricing for individual line items or percentage discounts from manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) across an organization's full catalog. The code also captures band repair services covering on-site or facility-based repair of brass, woodwind, and percussion instruments, with vendors required to complete repairs within defined timeframes and provide estimates for work exceeding a threshold cost. School districts issue most opportunities under the code, with occasional activity from health and human services agencies procuring instruments for active treatment programs.
