I almost bought one of your horns. I play in a local big band and we are getting to be much Better than we were in years past. Players have instruments a few that have played professionally. There are a few music teachers too. One of the music teachers told me not to buy a Mendini for two reasons-she said the trombones use thinner metal pieces and if you need a part to fix it, they will be hard to get. Can you tell me if there are repair shops in Northern New York or in the Syracuse area that fix Mendini trombones if I need one? Are parts hard to find?
