A couple of weeks ago, I went over how to return your student’s instrument if they are no longer going to be playing. But what if your student is continuing and his or her flute needs a little TLC? Has it been a while since your instrument was in for a check-up? If summer is a down time for you and your playing time, then you should send your instrument in for a check-up. We recommend two visits each year to help keep your instrument in proper playing condition and the summer is the perfect time.
In fact, schools across the state will be sending in all kinds of school-owned instruments this summer to be cleaned, repaired, and refurbished so that they are ready to go for the next school year.
The best way to get your horn serviced during the summer is to bring it to the store. Our District Managers are visiting some schools during the summer, but not all schools and not every week. It’s very sporadic. The safe thing to do is call us first to see if arrangements can be made to drop off a loaner and pick up your instrument. To see if we will be visiting your school this summer, give Erin a call at 317-813-2044.
Have a great rest of your summer and don’t forget to practice!
