A Woodwind Overhaul is a mechanical
restoration that includes replacing all pads, corks, swedging keywork
to eliminate lost motion, and
lubricating and regulating instrument to play as well as humanly possible.
Replacing missing parts is extra, as are major dents, or refinishing.
Please call for details.
Woodwind crack pinning -
$50.00 per pin.
Clarinet tenon replacement service is available,
and price varies by size of instrument and
extent of damage.
Please call or e-mail about tenon replacements. Other woodwind services are based upon a shop labor rate of $70.00
per hour. Feel free to contact me also about any repair concerns that
are not

Restorations and Full Restorations |
| Play-Condition
Restorations and Full Restorations are done on a case-by-case basis,
and are done by estimate only. All repairs are based upon a shop labor
rate of $70.00 per hour, as of April 1, s. I prefer to see the instrument
in person to make a firm determination, but can provide at least a general
estimate if the customer provides good jpeg photos of the instrument
via e-mail, preferably taken outdoors in full daylight conditions.

Mouthpiece Modifications and Restoration |
Brass Mouthpiece Modifications
and Restorationare also on a case-by-case basis, and done by estimate.
The minimum charge for mouthpiece work involving buffing and re-plating
is $50.00 for smaller mouthpieces, and $75.00 for tuba mouthpieces.
One mouthpiece is restored with each full instrument restoration, and
is
included in the full instrument restoration price. Restoring a mouthpiece
can be extremely time-consuming. I am willing to restore just about
any mouthpiece. Just be aware that if the mouthpiece is in really rough
condition, restoration could cost several times that of a new mouthpiece.
That is
why I suggest limiting mouthpiece restoration to those of historical
significance, great rarity, or mouthpieces that just play great and
should
be preserved. Mouthpiece shank trueing is a minor operation, and done
for $5.00 or less. I remove stuck mouthpieces for no charge. Cutting
a mouthpiece shank to fit a smaller receiver is a routine lathe operation,
and generally costs $25.00. I will drill out the backbore of a mouthpiece
to your specified drill size for $10.00.

I can chemically-clean your plastic or hard rubber mouthpiece, repair teeth marks and chips, modify the lay, and buff to a like-new appearance. I can also clean and repair rare wooden mouthpieces. Please call or e-mail for details.

| Case Repair |
Case Repair can vary widely,
from replacing a handle in 5 minutes or less to an extensive re-covering
of an antique
case. Case repairs are done by estimate.
