Them Bones, Them Bones, Them Trombones…..

It’s been a very interesting week….

The week for me started off with a sale of a beautiful Yanagisawa, pre loved Tenor Sax. The customer knew exactly what they wanted and were excited to have this lovely instrument. What makes an instrument really special is the time and experience to properly set it up in it’s best balance condition. Keys set up at the right height and keys feeling smooth and pads covering very well. We are very lucky to have Taka as our senior woodwind tech to make sure that the woodwind instrument will perform at its best ๐Ÿ˜ป

Many shipments arrived this week from all over the world. Bambu cleaning swabs and accessories from Argentina, Gonzalez Reeds, too from Argentina and B.A.C. Trumpet and Trombone from America. We deal with many manufacturers, from all around the world.

This week there were elections in America which Daddy has been interested in. It’s about who rules the area and who is in control. That’s easy here. I am in control and I rule over mummy, daddy and Alfa. We don’t need votes or agreements to make this happen I am Queen Zara and that is it!  FINAL ๐Ÿ˜บ๐Ÿ˜ผ๐Ÿ™€

Repairs are starting to come in, in large numbers. Already school instruments are coming in and bookings are essential. Don’t leave it to the last minute to book your instrument in for a service if you need it for exams or performances.

On Saturday, a group of people including a lad who’s name is Declan came here to try a few trombones. I was outside listening and he had a a beautiful sound. I looked up and was so surprised that this lovely mellow sound was coming from a lad of 13 years old! Such a mature sound from someone so young. After a while, he settled on a B.A.C. Artist Series Elliot Mason Trombone. Wow!!! He looked so cool with it too. Well done Declan. We look in hearing more from you in the future……watch this space.

Time to sleep again. I am getting more tired nowadays. Maybe an age thing or putting up with Alfa snoring and naughtiness. Thank you again my fellow followers for listening to my fine and thoughtful words ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜ป๐Ÿ˜ธ
