The waiting list. 

This has varied from no wait to over four years.  I try really hard to keep it under two months. *

My best times for making headjoints are during the summer and over Christmas break. While I can make a few heads during the school year, I usually get a rush of orders in August and January just when I've run out of time to make them. 

So, if you're considering a headjoint, please get on the waiting list NOW.  It's free and there's no obligation.  

All you need do is email me with the following:

    your name

    address

    phone #

    make of piccolo

    date you'd prefer delivery

 

I'll confirm your place on the list and try to give an idea when to expect your name to come up.

               

 

* This has proven to be wishful thinking.  Every year or two I do manage to get caught up, but lately I've been more involved performing and teaching while the number of orders has also gone up.  If you do want a headjoint, by all means let me know.  I will eventually get it made, but as of the moment, I don't dare promise a delivery date.  I hate to keep people waiting, but it is probably best to think in terms of years rather than months.  During the summer of 2006 2007 I intend to invest in more up-to-date machinery to improve both quality and delivery times.  I'll keep you posted!

In 2009 Tiffany Powell (a former graduate student) began helping with communications and in the shop.  WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!!  In one year, the waiting list went from four years to just a couple of months.  YES!!!!
