This is considered normal maintenance for woodwind instruments. Because of time and use, all woodwinds develop leaks in the pads and go out of adjustment. This process will restore the instrument to its best playing condition. It includes thoroughly inspecting the instrument with leak light or feeler gauge to remove all leaks, reseating all pads, regulating key action, play testing, disinfecting the mouthpiece and cleaning the case. This process should be done annually to keep your instrument functioning properly.
As an authorized Yamaha dealer and professional repair technician who has repaired over 30,000 instruments, I take great pride in offering only the most proven, reliable brands and models of student line instruments for rent. Some of the brand names we use for our used rentals include: Yamaha, Bach, Selmer, Conn (french horns) and Howard Core string instruments.
We offer a wide variety of ukuleles, from playfully colored Diamondheads, to etched artisan Oscar Schmidts. Flathead Woodwind & Brass is pleased to be an authorized Washburn guitar dealer. We currently have acoustic guitars in stock, but are able to special order any Washburn electric guitars, bass guitars, banjos, mandolins or ukeleles.
We are a dealer for Howard Core String Instruments. They have a great line of all sizes and many different models of violins, violas and cellos as well as accessories. These instruments are availalble on a rent-to-own program or outright purchase. We have several models of their student line instruments in stock to fit your needs and budget. You can see what is available at www.howardcore.com.
We carry a complete line of high quality band accessories including mutes, music stands, valve oils, slide grease, instrument stands, reeds and much more. Having the best and most reliable accessories is always our priority. We stock a full line of instrument cases suitable for everyday use. A wide variety of cases are available for special order as well. We have in-stock replacement as well as step-up mouthpieces: Bach trumpet and trombone, Holton french horn, Selmer saxophone and VanDoren clarinet.

Fantastic local repair and sales shop for band instruments and much more. As a local director, I have worked with Dale and staff on and off for about 15 years. I have also lived in several regions around the country and worked with many local and nationwide shops - FH WW & Brass is absolutely top notch. We are blessed to have him in the valley. Do not hesitate to head here for any instrument needs!
On a side note, the Yamaha instruments he supplies are fantastic for any school band student - highly recommended as a beginner or talk to Dale about upgraded models as you continue.

High quality assortment of Washburn instruments (Guitars, Ukuleles, Banjos and more.) The workers there are all incredibly friendly and experienced - especially the main old timer who runs the place. Very reasonable prices. I got a brand new Washburn Rover travel guitar there for less than 200 bucks. They have less of a selection than Music 1 Workshop on the other side of town, but are way more trusting of customers around their instruments. (At Music One Workshop, you can only touch some instruments and you have to ask.
Even then they seem to get deeply offended and they'll constantly ask you what you're in the building for if you try to just browse.) Clean, reasonable, friendly, conversational and professional. A gem of a building to have in otherwose downtrodden Evergreen.

The finest Band Supply store the Flathead's ever known, largely because of owner and in-house tech Dale Shepard, also an excellent performance musician. This the store the school districts trust with their repairs, so should you. Reed and string prices competitive and convenient. Excellent place to get reasonably priced last minute gifts for your musician--stands, sheet music, fake books, accessories.
Now a Washburn guitar dealer, check out the ultra playable Comfort acoustic electric. Guitars professionally setup and always in tune. Thanks to Dale and family for filling this crucial niche!
