I also started a YouTube channel for repairs where I have added additional videos.

Repair Work
Due to the large amount of work involved in creating each instrument and the current waiting period, I only repair and tune instruments that I have built.
I do however recommend the work of Greg Jowaisas. Greg has experience in tuning, pad and valve replacement, concertina case building, bellows work (patching and replacing) and in making general overall improvements to the speed and tone of instruments. Greg can be reached at gjowaisas@insightbb.com
