As you all know, we are living in different times. Historically, If my instruments needed a bit of TLC or even full blown repairs, I could ring Paul Carrington and book them in for the neccessary treatment and get the instrument to him very quickly.
However, due to travel restrictions at my end (ferry services reduced etc) I finally managed to get to Flintham, just outside Newarke, last week and drop off my Soprano, Alto and Tenor (no room in the car for the baritone with all the other luggage)
Paul has continued working during the virus and strictly follows health guidelines for everyones safety.
He did a good service on all 3 saxophones and replaced pads where needed and sorted the regulation out along with fixing the neck tenon on my alto, and for a very reasonable price too.
I have had a blow on the Alto and it is like a new horn even though she is 94 years old. I am going to try the others later today, and looking forward to that.
I would thoroughly recommend Paul to anyone needing work done on there instruments, and I am looking forward to getting the Baritone and Clarinet serviced next time I am that way.
