The technicians bring hands-on performance experience to their craft, understanding the demands musicians place on their instruments from a player’s perspective.

The shop specializes in vintage guitar work alongside extensive orchestra and school band instrument support, handling everything from flutes and clarinets to tubas and percussion equipment.

The facility features state-of-the-art equipment, including a hydro sonic cleaning tank large enough to accommodate even full-sized tubas, ensuring thorough restoration work across all instrument types.

For woodwinds, Roberts Musical Services handles single pad replacements through complete overhauls, while brass instrument work ranges from water key cork replacement to complex dent removal and valve restoration. The guitar tech team applies the same meticulous approach to stringed instruments, combining technical precision with the practical insights that come from years of musical performance. This dual perspective as both musicians and repair specialists distinguishes their approach to instrument care.
