Subject: [kl] Servicing of instruments

My question is to those who repair and service clarinets and to all clarinet
teachers.

I own three music shops in England.

How often do you recommend students to have their instruments serviced?

At minimum, yearly.

What is a fair price to charge?

I charge $39 plus $6 per pad, $12 per tenon cork. Repads $149 plus parts.
Overhauls $209 plus parts. Cork pads extra.
