Clarinet Overhauls

Author: jacobhardy25

Hi everyone. I'm looking for people that do really good quality overhauls. If you could include the website that would be great. I'm looking to overhaul my R13 before my high school Solo and Ensemble this February to make sure it's playing really nice and before my concert in Benaroya hall with the Seattle Youth Symphony. Thanks for the help

Jake

On that side of the US your best bet will be Peter Spriggs in British Columbia.

I've also heard Morrie Backun is a fantastic technician as well! He might be a little pricey, judging off his accessory and clarinet prices, but I hear he's great. I'm sure Peter Spriggs is good too.

Second Spriggs. Square shooter.

I've heard nothing but good things about Spriggs and Backun as well. However I have also heard they tend to have a fairly large backlog so you may be waiting for a while before your clarinet gets to the front of the queue for an overhaul. Getting it back before February might be a challenge.
