Regular annual oboe and bassoon service is one of the most important things you can do to extend the life of your instrument. Over time, pads compress, corks dry out, and keywork loses its precision — often without the player noticing until something goes wrong. Our annual service catches these issues early, before they turn into costly repairs. Whether you play a student-level instrument or a professional Loree oboe or Fox bassoon, every instrument benefits from consistent, expert care. We service instruments shipped to us from across the country, and every instrument is play-tested by hand before being returned to you.
