Re: Woodwind Plating

I believe most if not all plating in the US is done through Alexander Plating Services. But that would be at the dealer or store owner level. As an individual you need a reputable repair person to remove the keys, posts and rings, prep them for plating and then reinstall on the horn with new pads and corks while making adjustments for the extra metal that has just been placed all over the keywork. That's a big job requiring a repair person willing and able to do it.

Places to start asking? Muncy Winds. Backun Musical Services, Miles Ahead Music.
