Instrument Repair
Clearwater's repair policy is to do the highest level of repairs for an affordable price. We believe every child should have a well performing instrument to aid in becoming a successful musician. Professionals need their horn to work great, but most don't make much in this town. (Support your local musician!)
Cyn has been repairing instruments for more than 35 years. We also have the most extensive tooling of any shop within 200 miles. Experience plus the right tools for the job!

Level One RepairWe clean the instrument reasonably without removing the keys.
Using special cleaning pads to get under the keys and small brushes to get the dirt, we then clean the bore with a sanitizing cleaner. All mouthpieces are thoroughly cleaned. We then regulate and straighten keys as well as remove minor dents where applicable. Flutes and surfaces are buffed. Saxophone necks and flute tenons are fitted for easy playability. |
WoodwindLevel Two RepairThe Instrument is disassembled.
Rods and key shafts are cleaned and oiled. Wooden parts are cleaned and oiled. The body and keys are polished. Minor dents are removed. Sax necks and flute tenons are refit for optimal contact playability. |

Chemical Clean

Slide WorkThis may include machine polishing the inside of the tubes.
Chemically cleaning the hand slide is required and included. |
ResonanceRemove tension in the braces by unsoldering them and moving them to where the instrument responds most freely. This can take an ok horn to be a great horn! We can free the tension of an instrument as well. This really changes the response, especially in the high and low registers.
