Hello everybody,

First of all I want to say that I´m a new forum member and that this is my first post.

I´m looking for a good tuba repair technician in the Chicago area so if somebody can give me some advice about this will be great.

Thanks!!!!

Carl's Pro Band is the closest place I know that I'd send my tubas to. He's in Bloomington/Normal, right off of ISU's campus. I just had my PT6P cleaned. They did a great job and it was fast too.

Dana Hofer has done fine work for me several times, just outside Chicago.

Here is another vote for Dana Hofer. Hell of a technician, hell of a guy.

Matt Johnson at Bandsource in Downers Grove is very good.

Nate Medsker, formerly of Greenhoe Trombones, is doing some fantastic work at Fix This! Instrument Repair in Palatine. He embarked on a giant tuba project (huge dents everywhere, needed a replacement water key crook, etc) when I left town last week, and I am excited to see his progress on it when I get back tomorrow.

I'm posting another vote for Matt Johnson. When I dropped a horn off with him this past Tuesday, the customer leaving with his horn was Jay Friedman. I know others here have also posted great things about his work.
