Hohner Clavinet Restoration
The Clavinet is an intriguing instrument with a unique sound that has many specific traits. They are often overlooked for servicing and restoration if they just “make sound” but can be clunky as hell. A well performing Clavinet is a true audible and tactile difference.
The first step in any servicing or restoration project is the initial assessment of the various parts and tolerances necessary to achieve a high quality instrument.

For those desiring a full assessment in order to perform their own repair or restoration, all recommendations including a parts list will be made for a fee of $195. A digital assessment via submitted photos is also available.
