Hey there everyone!
I’m here to tell you that April 6th, at 11 am, you can join me at the store for an interactive demonstration on how to bathe your trumpet. We will go over how to properly disassemble your trumpet, what the bathing process should look like, and how to put it back together correctly.
Bathing your trumpet is a common and simple maintenance that can be done in your bathroom tub or sink. I hope to see many of you there. Here’s to trumpets!
Attention all acoustic and electric guitar players!! This April, on Saturday, the 20th, we will be hosting a restring event featuring D’Addario’s NYXL and Nickel
Bronze guitar strings.
So what’s the deal?
On April 20th, bring your 6-string acoustic or electric guitar into the store. When you buy one pack of the NYXL or Nickel bronze strings, we will restring the guitar FOR FREE (normally a $20 service), and GIVE YOU another pack of the same strings. That’s right–Free restring and a free pack of strings when you buy one pack of D’Addario NYXL or Nickel Bronze strings.
NYXL Strings
Made out of a reformulated steel, the NYXL strings will “bend farther, sing louder, and stay in tune better than any string you’ve played before.” They “provide more strength and up to 131% greater tuning stability by utilizing a completely reinvented wire drawing process coupled with a revolutionary ‘fusion twist’ process for the plain steels” (D’Addario Co.). They also provide more high output and a enhanced mid-range frequencies.
Nickel Bronze Strings
The Nickel Bronze Strings yield a “crisp and clear sound to accentuate the unique tone of your guitar.” They’re perfect for players that are looking for “the depth and projection of light gauge bottom strings, but slightly less tension on the high strings for easy bending” (D’Addario Co.). The strings provide brilliant projection, unrivaled clarity, and heavenly balances and overtones.
We hope to see you there! One Day Only, While Supplies Last.
Every time you change your guitar strings, metal is being added to a landfill. We’ve teamed up with D’Addario and their Play Back string recycling program to help our environment in an easy, friendly, and free way.
What is Play Back?
D’Addario’s Play Back recycling program is a free and easy way for you to recycle any brand of metal guitar strings. An estimated 1.5 million lbs of metal strings are put into a land fill every year, as they are not recycled through municipal recycling programs. All you have to do is bring any brand of old metal strings (guitar, mandolin, banjo; anything as long as it’s metal!) to the store and drop them in our drop box, located at the front desk. We take care of collection and shipping of the strings so you don’t have to. Any time, any metal strings, we have you covered.
No matter the brand, bring your metal strings in and help us keep landfills string free.
