What I Offer
I care about your instrument as much as you do.
Personal Attention
I meet personally with every client to discuss their needs and make sure they leave with a clear understanding of what work was done and why.
Craftsmanship
My goal is to get every instrument playing as well it possibly can with advanced techniques, precision and relentless attention to detail.
Do it Right
Strive to do the best work possible to ensure it is done right the first time. I rarely have to re-do work, but if there is an issue, bring it back and I will take care of it.

Testimonials
Selmer Mark VI tenor – “OMG!! You did a FANTASTIC job on my tenor! ….much smoother playing and more in tune!! Thanks so much!! Very FUN to play again.” L.B. – Calgary
Yamaha Baritone Sax – “Thanks for putting in the time to come up with the innovative octave pip repair that makes such a great difference. It will be more relaxing to play. It’s like having a new horn!” Robin – Calgary
1934 Buescher New Aristocrat – “Wow, it’s fantastic. Completely outplays the Keilwerth SX90 I’ve been using. And I didn’t realize just how badly out of regulation my True Tone is. This feels like it just came off the assembly line. Thanks again, I’m very pleased with it.” Marc – Athens, Georgia
1950’s (?) Martin Freres Clarinet – “Just a quick note to express my appreciation for the great job you did on my Martin Frere’s clarinet. Having played it now a few times I must say that the instrument now shows an expressive beautiful tone and timbre, as well as an ease for the player which is the good result of your restoration. Thank you so much for your expertise and willingness to bring this clarinet from the stage of being an unplayable old relic to a fine musical instrument.” R.V. – Calgary
Yamaha EX Alto Sax – “Thank for your work on my alto saxophone. What a difference. It is the best it has ever played!” N.L. – Calgary
