The motto of John Peterson at RDG Woodwinds in Los Angeles is "overkill is underrated." I have had him overhaul all three of my current instruments. My Lorée EH was "constantly going out of adjustment." But he did the "overkill" on it and now I've hardly adjusted a thing on it since. If you have lots of little problems, they all add up so that one adjustment ends up being the straw that breaks the camel's back. But that one adjustment is often not the real problem. Sometimes it's worth it to have a skillful repair person just do everything to an instrument now and then. You'd be amazed how many problems it solves!
