Euphonium and bariton overhaul and repair

Your euphonium or baritone deserves regular maintenance to function optimally and maintain its rich sound. We recommend having your instrument checked by a professional repair technician at least once a year. During this check-up, minor maintenance will be performed, and any potential issues can be detected early. At Adams, you can easily schedule an appointment to keep your euphonium or baritone in top condition.

Repair department

Our wind instrument repair department is where craftsmanship and passion come together. Our experienced and certified repair technicians have extensive knowledge of all types of wind instruments. With utmost precision and the use of high-quality materials, they ensure that each instrument is restored to peak condition. Whether it’s minor adjustments, thorough maintenance, or complex repairs, your instrument is in the best hands with us.

Polishing

Thoroughly cleaning your instrument. It is recommended to clean your instrument once every six months. You can do this yourself, or you can have it done by Adams. We thoroughly clean your instrument in our large ultrasonic bath and polish it to make it shine again.

Disclaimer: If the lacquer on your instrument is damaged or peeling in certain areas, it may come off during ultrasonic cleaning. We are not responsible for this.

Regular Maintenance Euphonium and Baritone

Regular maintenance is suitable for new euphoniums and baritones as well as tenorhorns and altos, well-maintained instruments, or instruments that have recently been overhauled.

During this maintenance, the instrument is carefully disassembled and ultrasonically cleaned. The valves and cylinders are oiled, and the slides and tubes receive a fresh layer of grease. Additionally, we check the condition of the springs, guides, and corks to ensure everything functions smoothly.

Euphonium and Baritone Overhaul

An overhaul is necessary for older euphoniums and baritones, instruments that haven’t had professional maintenance for a long time, or instruments in poor condition. During the overhaul, your instrument will be fully disassembled and thoroughly ultrasonically cleaned. The valves and cylinders are oiled, and the slides and tubes are polished and greased, ensuring everything works smoothly again.

Additionally, we replace felts, corks, springs, and valve guides, and we fix any play in the cylinders. Everything is done based on a previously agreed-upon estimate. Any unforeseen additional costs will always be discussed with you in advance.

Baritone / Euphonium Repair

In addition to overhauling baritones and euphoniums, we also perform repairs. Dents in bells are fixed here daily. Have you dropped your instrument or bumped it into something? Bring your baritone or euphonium to us and we will ensure it is repaired.

Baritone / Euphonium Lacquering

Do you have many scratches on your baritone or euphonium and want to have it lacquered? This can also be done with us. Please note that before lacquering, the instrument must be dent-free and smoothed out. If this needs to be done, there will always be an additional charge for these services. For lacquering your instrument, you can choose from: high gloss lacquer (colorless), matte lacquer, gold lacquer, vintage look lacquer (antique lacquer). For other colors or special requests, please contact us.

Baritone / Euphonium Silver Plating

The same conditions apply for silver plating your baritone or euphonium as for lacquering your baritone or euphonium. In addition to silver plating, you can also choose to have the instrument matte silver plated.

Mouthpiece Adjustments

In addition to silver plating and lacquering your instrument, you can also have your mouthpieces silver-plated or gold-plated. Inquire about the costs and possibilities. We can also create a plastic rim on the mouthpiece or a detachable rim.

Valve Reconstruction and Valve Alignment

Valve reconstruction makes your valve cylindrical in shape and perfectly fitting in the valve casing so that your valve runs smoothly. The valves are also re-nickel plated. You can also opt for valve alignment, which ensures that the passages in the valve seamlessly connect to the valve slides. This results in better control of the instrument.

Triggers, Supports, and Stands

If you need extra support while playing your euphonium or baritone, you can submit a request with us to develop a special support to enhance your playing experience. Additionally, we have a standard support that has already been developed for these instruments. We can also install a standard trigger on the main tuning slide or a V-system trigger (better resonance). To protect these triggers, we can also place a trigger slide protector for an additional fee. Inquire about the possibilities for your instrument.

Adjustments

For your baritone or euphonium, we can also apply the following adjustments to your instrument:

  • Shorten main tuning slide
  • Add extra water key
  • Add extra valve (on request)
  • Convert from right-handed to left-handed (on request)

Replacement Instrument During Repairs

During a repair, you can use a replacement instrument free of charge, depending on availability. Inquire at the time of dropping off your instrument whether a replacement instrument is available and ask about the terms and conditions.
