No Brainer here!

Within a few hours of you are some of the most experienced people with converting Yorks. Dave Fedderly at the Baltimore Brass Company has had a few done for himself (along with Bob Rusk). If you go north, Matt at Dillon Music has done his share. I've played horns by both of them and they have both had their share of successes.

I'll third that! I am in South Jersey, and have the enviable choice of going 90 minutes north to Dillons or 90 minutes south to Baltimore Brass--as do you! You will find directions to both at the top of the page under "Shops". We are lucky to have 2 of maybe the top 4-5 brass repair shops in the country so close at hand.
Bearin' up!

I agree with the comments about the ability of Baltimore Brass and Dillon's to the job (both are first rate in my opinion). I would also like to add that (in my opinion) both are very honest.

p.s.
I take my own tubas to Baltimore Brass for repair, they are excellent.
