I brought my Selmer Super Action Tenor in for the best overhaul it's ever received at the lowest price I've ever paid. Best repair Co on the entire West coast.

I have been here twice in 2019 and again in January 2020. First time was for my flute's malfunction where the keys got stuck(and in the middle of my audition for flute lessons at my university). The second time was to get my flute professionally cleaned, but more of a preventative for it malfunctioning during my performance on stage in early February. The repair people were nice and helpful. For my flute, they repaired my flute within 3-5 days guaranteed. I even have gotten a phone call letting me know my flute was ready for pick up.

I had used this place before in the late 90s and had excellent luck with both their service and professionalism. However my latest experience with them was only ok. I was told to bring my horn in September or October when the school instruments were going to be all finished. So I brought my Bach 16 in October on ther 14th and it was not completed until February. I had it re-lacquered and overhauled. I was quoted 600 to 700 dollars. They told me to call if I hadn't heard from them in awhile and I needed it. I waited a month before calling. They were very polite and professional on the phone and never made me feel like I was bugging them. When the horn was finished in February it looked and played very well. Slide was excellent. But 3.5 months is a long time for an overhaul, and the bill was 800 dollars. Now, not sure why it was more than quoted, but I think if you take that long to do the work, then the price should be as quoted. Not the worst experience, but average at best.

Just call them. They will give you an accurate estimate and their prices are always reasonable. The best work, too!

Do they repair instruments other than horns?
