Are there any brass instrument shops in the southeast London area? I recently came across my old baritone while spring cleaning, but unfortunately, it’s missing its mouthpiece. I’m concerned about the instrument possibly being damaged, so I’d like to take it to a shop for a thorough cleaning and to get some valve oil as well. Ideally, I’d love to find a shop in Camberwell, but I’m willing to travel if necessary. Thanks for any recommendations!
