Since
its founding in 1980, several things have set
Lagerquist Flute Service apart from most
repair establishments.
First,
John Lagerquist has over thirty years
experience as a professional flutist. He
knows better than most technicians when the
job is done right.
Secondly,
it means that it is easier for you to have a
sensible dialogue about your musical
requirements.
Third,
our repair service does not offer retail.
This allows us to be candid about various
products and advise you according to actual
experience. There will be no attempt to sell
you any products.
Since
1980, our shop has been the place that
professional flutists and their students rely
on for quality, professional repairs and
intelligent, objective advice.
