This was a BIG job! Had to remove the first branch to do this one right. My hands are tired, but I am very proud of these results. This Yamaha Euphonium lives to see another day at one of our local schools.

I have been swamped for months now, but took time out of the shop to work on a side, passion project.
Meet Micah! She has been patiently been waiting on this custom baritone marching marching harness! She has Cerebral Palsy and loses muscle control at times. This does not bode well for marching band.
She is a Freshman at Iroquois West High School. Mrs. Renee Pendry contacted me to see if I could help make Marching Band a reality for her. It took a few weeks, but I was able to customize an old drum harness to secure the horn and allow her to march with the rest of the band! I even gave it Iroquois West colors as a finishing touch!!!!
Remember, here at King Music Inc. Band Repair we strive to make music a reality for all! This was a super awesome project. I have been passionate about helping those in need my whole life. Have a great weekend. Like and share this beautiful story!

This was a really fun repair. This was a bari from Kankakee High School that had been out of commission for some time. The 1st two pictures are before and the last is what I remembered to take of the after. Turned out awesome. So proud of this one. #kingmusicinc #repairgnome #bandinstrumentrepair #dentworkfordays #kankakeehighschoolband 
This Side C Lever fork was almost snapped off. I cut it off, brazed it back together, cleaned it up, and mounted back on the horn. Turned out great! #kingmusicinc #instrumentrepairtechnicians #brazing #betterthannew
