Servicing

As Flute and Clarinet specialists, we service and clean all our second-hand instruments in house
Examples of Service

- The keys and pads are checked for leaks and regulated or replaced
- The hinge tubes are cleaned and the rods oiled as appropriate
- The springs are re-tensioned or replaced as necessary
- For a flute, the cork is removed from the head-joint, allowing us to wash it
thoroughly, removing all traces of the previous owner

- The clarinet mouthpiece is completely washed and sterilised
- Clarinet tenon corks are replaced as necessary and greased prior to sale
- Key bumpers are checked and replaced using cork or felt
