  • Marc:

    "It plays better than when I bought it. It's retained all of the playability, but the sound is just so vibrant and easy to play. I'm excited to play horn again. Thanks for that above all else."

  • Anson:

    "Miles was excellent! His repair service and communication were both top notch. I was in town for a gig, in need of an emergency repair, and he was able to help me out in a pinch. I highly recommend contacting him with any repair needs."

  • Vincent:
