Free estimates
Repair estimates are free. Call to book an appointment and bring your instrument in — we’ll give you a verbal estimate, or a more detailed one by email covering costs and timeframe.
Our approach
Our specialists set up every instrument with care, using high-quality materials and components, so it’s ready for the concert platform. Every client is invited back after a few months for a check-up and tonal adjustment, included in the service.
