Before & After Pictures
Getzen flugel horn (c.
1970's) that had been neglected for a while.
Now it is like new again!
A common occurence -
mouthpiece gets stuck and "someone" (usually a Dad) tries to pull it
out with pliers and ends up breaking the trumpet braces and/or
solder joints. We have a mouthpiece puller that works in about
30 seconds and it is a FREE SERVICE! There is, however, a
charge to rebuild the trumpet...
Notice the curvature of the body that
shouldn't be there and the big dent next to the thumb key tone hole
in the "before" pictures above. To the right is the "after" -
all straightened out and playing beautifully again.
Mellophone was brought in
when someone fell into it in the bleachers of a college hockey game.
Ouch.
This trumpet was stepped on. We had to
completely disassemble the
instrument in order to straighten the bell stem.
Bell stem being burnished in the Ferree's dent
machine...and the final
product fully re-assembled.
This sousaphone was
literally hanging on the side of a barn until the current owner
discovered it and asked to buy it. Turned out quite nice!
A music store told this
customer that her flute headjoint could not be fixed and that
she would have to buy a new one. We repaired it to like new
and saved her quite a bit of $$.
