UNSPSC 60131428 Pyeonjong is a Commodity code covering band and orchestra instruments — principally woodwinds, brass, strings, and percussion — that state and local school districts purchase for music education programs.

Districts require general liability insurance typically at $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate, proof of federal work authorization, and unit pricing including delivery FOB destination.
