Have You Got the Right Mouthpiece Set-up?

Have you considered that you may not be getting the most our of your instrument? Have you outgrown your student mouthpiece? Signs to watch out for are overblowing, difficulty reaching the upper register (which can also mean you have outgrown your student instrument), and stuffiness of sound.

All of these symptoms will mean that your progress may be slower than expected, and can result in the development of bad habits such overblowing and physical tension.

If you're not sure you're not getting the best out of your instrument, simply give us a call and book your free consultation now.

Shipping

All Freight and Insurance charges are payable by the customer at the time of purchase. The dimensions, weight and value of the items will determine the amounts payable. We will not send instruments without insurance as accidental loss or damage, though rare, is possible during transit. This requires an insurance levy of approximately 1.5%.

All of our instruments are thoroughly checked by us before leaving the store, and every effort is made to ensure that the instruments are as well packed as possible.

We use the following carriers:

  1. Within Australia: Australia Post Express Post, TNT, or Couriers Please. Delivery is usually the next day. For centres outside Metropolitan areas, or in Western Australia, the delivery time may be up to three days. Delivery address to a workplace is advisable if no-one will be available to accept delivery at your home address during normal working hours.

 

  1. Overseas: Australia Post EMS or UPS. Delivery time is usually within 7 days to most destinations (eg USA, Europe), though a cheaper but longer delivery time is also available. Delivery address to a workplace is advisable if no-one will be available to accept delivery at your home address during normal working hours.

Here are some examples of freight and insurance costs to USA/Europe for various articles. These are shown as a guide only, and costs vary according to the size, weight and value of the items you are purchasing. Large instruments such as tubas will incurr much higher fees. Please also note that freight costs may also vary according to your destination country or state, for example freight prices within Australia vary according to the Postcode. We will confirm the exact freight and insurance costs with you before completing the sale.

Sample costs:

($ Australian) ($ Australian) ($ Australian)
Instrument Alto sax Clarinet Tuba
Price $2,700.00 $750.00 $6,000.00
