SANDERSJM, (what a curious name! Is the origin AOLian? ;) )
Anyway, too bad aabout the butcher who bungled your instrument,
but any GOOD repairman can do a wonderful job sith a professional clarinet
like a Selmer. Where do yo live????????? We can't help you with anyone
close by unless you give us SOME hints. BTW, there are plenty of
superb repair people
who will be happy to do your horn if you UPS it to them. However, much as
I trust UPS, I would never want to ship my horn and I advise against it if
you have a good repair person close by.
