Smiles of renewal as Wingates once again link up with Brass Toff Ltd

Friday, 06 January 2017

Wingates Band will once again receive free brass maintenance over the course of 2017 from the well know brass repair and renovation company Brass Toff.

Financial security

Sue Macdonald, newly appointed Band Manager told 4BR: "This is a very important move in order to consolidate our quest to bring continued financial security to Wingates Band.

We are in a fortunate position to have links to Brass Toff through Nicola and our MD Paul Andrews as all our players benefit from having consistent brass maintenance."

30 years of experience

Established in 1983, Brass Toff is an instrument repair business and sole UK retailer of Elliott Brass. It is owned by the well known conductor Paul Andrews who has over 30 years experience in the musical instrument repair sector.

Paul told 4BR: "Everyone will benefit from their instruments working to the very highest standard through regular servicing. It's vitally important to have these expensive instruments working at their optimum capacity in order for Wingates to gain the necessary longevity from their assets."
