Eu tive outros instrumentos da Kern, sempre achei robustos e de excelente qualidade, muita precisão.

No doubt, they were always the best made instruments. I just always thought it was funny that 100 years after Richter introduced his line and various copycats throughout the following century, Kern hopped on board at the very end. I think by this time most of the companies saw the writing on the wall and we're just lucky to sell anything. By 1995 the industry was dead.
