New stock looking for new homes…

It’s funny for me…after big sis Zara and I slept separately for a few days, she has been back to MY bedroom…yes, we are sleeping together again ! Well, because Zara did pooooooo on the carpet in the living room where she was sleeping. One day, in the morning, when daddy found her poo, daddy and mummy thought “that’s it !”.  Ummmm….she is a big girl now…she still needs a poo box !?????? Or, maybe she wanted to come back to MY bedroom and sleep with me !?????? J

The weather has not been nice – lots of rain and wind…but at least it is not so cold like winter, so I guess I cannot complain too much J I sleep mummy’s behind on her chair in the office, so it keeps me very warm anyway JJJ

Monday, mummy had a phone call from South Island. It was from a gentleman who is 92 year-old and plays  trumpet ! Mummy and daddy thought that he did not sound like 92…no medication at all and lives healthy and plays trumpet…wow ! He has seen our website and he was fallen love with one of our trumpets and purchased it over the phone. The Yamaha YTR3320S has left for the gentleman in Waimate.

Mummy and daddy believe that all our pre-loved instruments always find right home for them. Some instruments leave new homes so fast, but some of them stay here for a while…waiting for right owners. In the case of a Yanagisawa pro alto sax A991, she stayed at DR TOOT for a few months. Then, she has finally found a new owner ! He is one of daddy’s students, and he came here with mummy and daddy on Sunday to try saxophones. He has fallen love with the A991 and came back again on Tuesday to purchase it….Jolly goooood J

Another pre-loved mouthpiece has gone to overseas…this time, a vintage Selmer alto sax mouthpiece went to Japan ! Mummy was excited about it J

Friday, one of pre-loved Yamaha cornets has found a new home through TradeMe.  The shiny beautiful cornet will be leaving for Rangiora soon.

Saturday morning, father and daughter from Hamilton came to see DR TOOT. She was looking for a tenor saxophone and had tried a couple of them. She loves the sound of Yamaha tenor sax YTSS62, so she left happily with the YTS62 J Ummmm, it arrived a few days ago and has already found a new home….lucky sax !

Well, lot of pre-loved instruments has arrived and they made mummy and daddy very busy.  Now the show room is full of instruments again, and they are looking for new owners J Come to see me…..aaah, no…..come to see instruments and try at DR TOOT !!!


PS: We just had a big thunder…s-c-a-r-y…scary than Zara J
