A week ago at a gig here in NYC my trusty ol horn got knocked over (yanked over by a rogue microphone cable) It got crunched in a number of places.
The issue was that this is my one-and-only axe, and I rely on it nearly every day -- and when I am without it, well, I am basically screwed! So, I called Matt and he jumped to my rescue, fixing it up and more, in just a couple of days -- and did a fantastic job! Matt's attention to detail was outstanding, as is the workmanship on the joints, solders etc.
Now, this was no ordinary de-denting job... as this horn has not had any major work done on it since 1993, nor has it been chemically cleaned
. ...it gets dragged all over the place; ridden hard, and put away wet. The wear and tear on this horn is akin to Willie Nelson's guitar. Two of the slides have not moved in at least a decade (ever heard the term "tuned at the factory?") 
In any case, it was a big job, and Matt did it QUICK. Thanks so much!!!!
Also, big thanks to Ben Vokits of Floozies fame... who loaned me his, almost identical, 186 whilst mine was in the Dillon Hospital!
Thanks again guys!!
