What a wild and wonderful trip through the northeastern United States! I had a great time seeing lots of repair shops, meeting new friends, seeing the sights, and even got to take my beautiful little daughter on vacation for a few days. All of the videos from the shops I visited are below, along with a video tour of my own shop.
At NFA, everyone I talked to was excited about the improvements in our pads and lots of people were interested in trying our RooPads for piccolo. Everyone who is interested in getting a sample is welcome to email me and I’ll get one sent out to you.
Next, I visited 7 repair shops in the Washington DC area and 2 in New York City. Check them out!
