While scratching through our storage room looking for something while getting ready for our trip to England today, my wife came upon my old Martin Commitee Model cornet which I thought was forever lost. Physically it is in pretty decent shape, with only a very small amount of damage to the back bow. The finish on the other hand is horrible. The valves are very fast and tight. The slides are all well lubed and free.
My question is; who should I send it to for renovation? I am wanting a good professional job, but, don't wish to take out a bank loan to get the job done.
You all can now put on your thinking caps and hopefully, there will be a good prospect for me to investigate upon my return from our"holiday".
