I agonized over who to have do my pro overhaul on my 1977 R-13 for weeks and weeks.... and on a reliable recommendation, I finally decided on Tim Werkema, who is in Missouri (not my area), so I shipped my horn.
I was *extremely* pleased with the work done, which included everything as the instrument hadn't been played in 24 years; tenon corks, oil bath for the body, complete replacement of all pads (cork on top, high-end dbl. skins on the bottom), new keywork bumpers & adjustments, key polishing, resuface the tone holes, polish the bore and several other things I can't even remember now. It came back looking, feeling and sounding fantastic. The action and pad sealing is perfect, and the keywork completely silent. The wood was in great condition to begin with, and now it just glows. Tim is fantastic; I'd highly recommend his work.
