That why I sold my ambassador to Dave Hina who has issued a quality ambassador approval and to help him return to play with classics. And now after years of great research and development exciting new Olds bands are created to meet today increasingly demanding performance needs. For example I have the old old ambassador of granite from 1974 which is a very good player although it has been based on inconsistent quality from the factory.
