$99 Clarinet economy Repad!
Our clarinet repair and clarinet overhaul technicians are highly trained artisans. We look at all aspects of a clarinet and assess its operational qualities to ensure, upon its completion, that the clarinet is in the absolute best condition possible. Our artisans pay attention to details such as tone hole finishing, post tightness with regards to key operation, pad thickness and key height issues, tuning, proper screw and key shaft fitting, and fine wood conditioning.
Many shops tend to overlook certain parts of the clarinet repair process. They consider some clarinet operations that we perform on a routine basis redundant. NO PART of the clarinet repair should simply be overlooked. We thoroughly examine the clarinet and assess completely anything that might need to be done to put it into top-notch condition. We call with a complete estimate BEFORE we do any work on your clarinet so that you are not confused about what we are doing! When we are done with the repair your instrument is carefully pegged down so that nothing changes during shipment. The clarinet is then packed securely and returned to you in a timely manner.
