This year MusicMedic.com was the host of the first ever
Saxophone Smackdown!
The Smackdown is series of clinics aimed at addressing advanced repair procedures of the saxophone.
It's also a rock'in good time where techs come from all over the world to party down and enjoy a
great time with fellow NAPBIRT members; MusicMedic style.
What happens when you change the length, size, shape or lacation of a saxophone octave pip?
If you've ever wondered, you'll enjoy reading the results of MusicMedic.com's
octave pip experiments.
Spring Events!
Red Wing Instrument Repair School - February 2010
Every year I make a pilgrimage to Red Wing Minnesota, home of the Red Wing Repair School
and the location of a NAPBIRT Regional clinic. Every year it's snowy and beautiful and
I'm caught off guard by the program and the people in Red Wing.
This year was no exception.
