Yes, that's correct. Jamie used to teach at the University of Toledo. He's a fantastic person.

I had the guy over at Muncy Winds do some work on my 1974 MW Model 25 BBb and he did a fine job. He was a little slow, but so am I!

He's close to Boone-

Rod Berry is the guy's name at Muncy Winds and he does do good work. I know Mike Teague does really good work and he is in the Winston-Salem area. I know he used to be affiliated with Jackson's music but I don't know if he is now. Either way the people there will help you get in touch with him. He even has built some horns inthe past.

I have been very very pleased with the work Mike Morse has done on my tubas, trombones and euphoniums over the past 10 years or so. Some of it routine and some pretty complex. He is also a very good person to do business with- fair, honest, timely, professional, all that.

Mike Morse has worked on several of my instruments over the last 25 years and always performed great work for a very reasonable price.

When I was in DC, Dave Kratz did all my repairs and he's a genious with a blow torch. I didn't know he was in Fayetteville. If you have to leave him your horn, just don't leave your gig bag...back in Arlington, his cat liked to give bags a special fragrance!

I don't think you can go wrong with either of these guys.

Bought a 32-year-old Besson 3+1 comp euph at an estate sale a couple of weeks ago.

Took it in to Mike Morse yesterday to have him look at a sluggish second valve. Turns out the valve was slightly bent. (NOT what I wanted to hear! ) After talking over the options, Mike agreed to give it a shot at straightening it out, with no guarantees that it could be fixed, short of a full rebuild.

Picked up the horn this afternoon and spent the last 3+ hours putting the valve through its paces, and I can state unequivocally that the thing plays is 1000% better.

Needless to say, I am EXTREMELY pleased with the work Mike did. (Damn inexpensive, too, if you ask me.)

Can you say "Furman".
