*Prices may vary slightly according to the condition of the instrument. Prices above do not include shipping/insurance charges. Repairs are completed on a first-come, first-serve basis. It is very important when shipping an instrument in for repairs that you include a note in the box with your contact information (name, address, phone number and email address) as well as the reason you are sending the instrument in. The package should also be marked "Attn: Repairs" on the outside of the box so that we can quickly receive you package. Since we service a high volume of instruments, failure to comply will most likely cause a delay in the repair of your instrument. For more information about sending your instrument in for a repair, please contact us at 248-855-0410.
