Back-to-school season is here, and now is the perfect time to make sure your student’s instrument is ready for the year ahead.

At Nick & Tiff Music, we can help with instrument cleanings, adjustments, and repairs for school band and orchestra instruments. Whether your clarinet needs new pads, your saxophone has a sticky key, your trumpet needs attention, or your student’s instrument just needs a good cleaning before classes start, we’re happy to take a look.

A clean and properly working instrument can make a huge difference for a student. It is hard enough learning music without fighting against an instrument that is leaking air, sticking, buzzing, or not playing the way it should.

We also have a few affordable used clarinets in stock, which can be a great option for students who need an instrument without spending the money on a brand-new one. Used instruments are limited, so stop in or message us if you are looking for one.

If your student’s instrument has been sitting all summer, now is a great time to bring it in before the school year gets fully underway.

Stop into Nick & Tiff Music in Derby, NY, or contact us with any questions about cleaning, repairs, or affordable used instruments.

As always, thank you for supporting local music and local musicians — it truly makes a difference.
