Twenty professional instrument technicians handle the repair of brass, woodwind, string and percussion in our state of the art facilities.  We also have technicians specializing in electronic instruments and related equipment.
    Marshall Music recently made a major investment and purchased several large ultrasonic cleaners for the interior cleaning of band instruments for eachof its repair facilities across the state. This purchase will provide our customers with the most advanced method available todato clean their instrument.
  The cleaning of band instruments has changed little in the last 100 years.  Tradition dictated the use of acid based solutions to remove the lime and scale deposits.   Most acid based chemicals used in this process work primarily by removing metal, and in doing so etch the surface of these metals in various degrees.  While modern chemistry has improved with the passage of time, things really haven’t changed . . . until now!
  The unique aspect about this new type of cleaning method is that ultrasonic cleaning is performed by using sound waves, which are sent through a liquid medium to microscopically scrub and clean all internal and external surfaces.  These bubbles expand and implode repeatedly, creating a scrubbing action thousands of times a second which removes all organic materials. This allows more complete cleaning of even the most complex tubing geometry.
