 Technicians Expert in Repairing Metal Clarinets
Author: Ransome Fan

Are any of you aware of a reputable technician who can work with metal clarinets? I’m specifically interested in getting the adjustable tuning barrel on my Buescher True Tone 731 clarinet un-stuck. The bell is also stuck, though I’m less concerned about that. I don’t want some bozo destroying the horn, and I’m happy to pay for a good job.

If any of you have an adjustable barrel of this type that works, I’d really like to see some photos. I can’t tell exactly where some of the joints are.

You probably need to look for a good sax repair tech or even a brass instruments repair shop.

You might search the NAPBIRT.org site for a shop.

Hey! I got it fixed. I took it to Dan Oberloh, in Seattle. He made it look easy. Here’s a link to a photo tour of his shop: http://www.oberloh.com/gallery/Shop.htm
