We adjust the repair according to your wishes and your trombone's needs. To give you an accurate estimate of the repair or service needed, our technicians need to inspect your trombone. This is free but requires that we have the instrument at hand. You are always welcome to visit our shop, send us an e-mail (with pictures and a description of the problem), or send us the instrument. Contact us if you need help with the shipping.

PRICE

Repairs are invoiced per initiated half hour. We are happy to give you an estimate of the cost, but cannot always foresee the full extent of the repair before we start working on the instrument. 

Ultrasonic cleaning -what is it?

Have you bought an instrument that you really love? With ultrasonic cleaning, your instrument is cleaned thoroughly and gently in a bath of water through ultrasonic soundwaves. This method spares the insides of your instrument the wear and tear usually inflicted by traditional brush cleaning.
