Techs currently doing repair work
Does anyone know of any techs that are currently accepting work? Everyone around here is closed until further notice. I have no problem shipping. Since things are currently on hold, I would bot mind getting a spare horn I have into playable shape.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Techs currently doing repair work
I'll check with my tech in Cleveland on Monday and see if he'll do it.
I'm not a complete idiot, some parts are still missing!

You can ask Bruce Belo in L.A. The best slide guy in my opinion.

I'm fairly certain John Sandhagen in California is still doing work on a call by call basis. Here's a link to his website. https://theboneyard-ca.org/index.html

Re: Techs currently doing repair work
Who do you use in Cleveland?
I can't believe we never connected when I as still working. For a lot of years I did a lot of work for Lentine's and Sodja's. For the last 15 years I did all of Sam Ash's work plus a lot for Motter's. Also a bunch of local pro's.
Now I just work on my own horns!

Re: Techs currently doing repair work
I used Educator's when I was in Twinsburg, then when I moved to North Royalton I started with Greg Moore. His shop is Moore Music in Parma, on State near Brookpark Road. Just had him take dents out of my 7B bell and fix the slide.bigbandbone wrote: ↑Sun Apr 12, 2020 2:45 pmWho do you use in Cleveland?

He usd to be a satellite location for Motter's rental program. Does he still do that since Motter's sold out?Kingfan wrote: ↑Sun Apr 12, 2020 3:02 pmI used Educator's when I was in Twinsburg, then when I moved to North Royalton I started with Greg Moore.

Re: Techs currently doing repair work
I know of at least one person that’s still open and I wouldn’t be surprised if the other tech in my area is too. I love just outside of Chicago.

Re: Techs currently doing repair work
My guy in Cleveland is still fixing horns. He is a trumpet player and specializes in valved instruments but has worked on a few of my trombones as well. Slides are not his speciality. PM me if anybody wants contact info.

Re: Techs currently doing repair work
This has to be Benn Hansson. I don't think he's still in Issaquah, though. Benn? I'll approve your second post ASAP.Posaunus wrote: ↑Mon Apr 13, 2020 9:13 pmWhere are you located?OctavposauneII wrote: ↑Mon Apr 13, 2020 7:02 pm I am also still working. I work alone.

Re: Techs currently doing repair work
I'm still doing work from home, although it's mostly small repairs. Are all the large retailers closed at this point?
