Repairs
If you are renting an instrument through Ellis Music Company, repairs are covered through your rental. If you own your instrument, Ellis Music will look at instruments in need of repair, and call you first with an estimate. In the meantime, they will have an instrument ready for you to use for the time it is in the shop. Occassionally it can take more than one week for larger or special repairs.
