Everything looks absolutely amazing and the overlay to the
Distin leadpipe is barely noticeable! The restored Distin
plays beautifully so much I may have to auction off the other
horn!! The fabricated Bb bit is stunningly representative
of the original. I've have seen other fabricated bits that
always look "unoriginal". Many thanks once again for your
craftsmanship and expertise in breathing new life into a
masterfully crafted instrument, you are in a league of you
own. Your talents are second to none!
Thank you again,

The cornet plays great! And looks like new. Thanks again
for your wonderful craftsmanship. Who would have thought a 90
year old Cornet could sound and look so great!
Thank you,

Love the horn after using it many months. I have received so
many comments on the incredible restoration of the 1944 Bach
Stradivarius Cornet. I was told by a member of the Jack
Daniels Cornet Band it was the nicest vintage cornet he has ever
seen.
I played a few solos with it as well as
ensembles at my church. Most recently a ceremony thanking all
the Civil Servants in our community and the National Anthem sang
from the horn.
Thank you and God Bless,

I got the horn back today, it arrived safe and sound and looks
fantastic. The custom made tuning bit works fine, played it at
a gig last Sunday and am very pleased with it and received many
favorable comments on it. It sure is a "pretty" horn.
Thank you and take care,

I want you to know that I am extremely pleased with the beautiful
restoration that you have completed on my "Vintage Gonet Cornet".
You managed to take an instrument that most people would have turned
into a lamp at best, and made it one of the most gorgeous
instruments that I have ever seen. God has given you an
amazing talent and I thank you for the extraordinary job that you
have accomplished. I will recommend the Musical Instrument
Repair Shop to all my musician friends, and I will definitely
be doing business with you again. God bless you and your
family.
Sincerely yours,
Craig Grubbs
