I recently picked up a horn and would like to have it cleaned. I'm looking for recommendations for shops in the Philadelphia area, preferably in NJ.

I've seen A Minor Tune Up recommended in DE, which isn't horribly far, though still inconvenient. I've also seen in past threads Lenny Zapf at Music & Arts in Pennsauken recommended, but I don't believe there is an M&A in Pennsauken anymore. There is one in Marlton, but I don't know how they function. If they do it on site, send it out, etc.

Recommendations are appreciated.

If the horn is new to you and you want to be sure it is set up correctly, take it to the best shop you can find. I actually take a vacation day to drive mine up to Jim Becker at Osmun every 18 months or so. Taking the time is worth it. You get a day to recharge and refresh both your horn and yourself.

I’ll 2nd the vote for Chris at A Minor Tune up. As long as you have a car, Wilmington is a short and easy drive. Make an appointment and Chris can probably do it while you go out to lunch in any of the nice little restaurants in his neighborhood.
