Woodwind & guitar repair
Bring your instrument back to music.
Saxophone, clarinet, flute, and guitar repair by appointment at my Fountain Inn studio.
I approach each repair as a technician, educator, and working musician—focused on how your instrument feels, responds, and supports the way you play.
Tell me about your instrumentMusician-informed care
Careful bench work. Clear conversation.
An instrument is more than a collection of mechanisms. It's the tool you depend on to communicate.
I listen for the musical result as carefully as I study the mechanical problem, then explain the recommended next step in practical terms.

Serving musicians across Upstate South Carolina, including Simpsonville, Mauldin, and Greenville. If something doesn't feel or sound right, you don't need to diagnose it yourself—tell me what you've noticed, and we'll start there.
Saxophone repair
Leaks, worn pads, and keys that don't move freely can affect response and make playing harder. I offer leak diagnosis, adjustments, pad replacement, cleaning, maintenance, and complete overhauls, based on what your saxophone needs.
Clarinet repair
When notes feel resistant, keys stick, or a crack appears, an evaluation can help identify the cause. Clarinet services include leak diagnosis, adjustments, pad replacement, cleaning, maintenance, crack repair, and complete overhauls.
Flute repair
Leaks and keys that aren't working together can make tone and response less reliable. Flute services include leak diagnosis, adjustments, pad replacement, cleaning, maintenance, and complete overhauls to help restore comfortable, dependable playing.
Guitar setup and repair
If your guitar feels difficult to play, buzzes, or doesn't stay in tune across the neck, a setup may help. I offer restringing, action and intonation adjustments, and setup work focused on playability. Bring it in so we can discuss what it needs.
What to expect
A straightforward path back to playing.
Tell me what's happening
Share the instrument, the symptoms you've noticed, and how the problem affects your playing.
Schedule a free evaluation
In-person evaluations are free and usually take just a few minutes. Schedule an appointment at my Fountain Inn studio so I can check the instrument and understand what it needs.
Discuss the cost and timeline
Once I've checked the instrument, we'll discuss the recommended work, cost, and timeline. I can sometimes offer a rough estimate from your description, but seeing the instrument in person is the best way to give you a reliable recommendation.
