Doodles
  Doodles can turn around mouthpieces in 48 hours

Doodles Mouthpiece Replating, the respected business that provides players in the brass band movement with a bespoke professional service, is offering customers a 'refresh' overhaul ahead of the forthcoming Regional Championship series.

Services

Owner David Houghton told 4BR: "We have built up a fantastic customer base over the last few years, whilst we continue to enjoy meeting and working with new players eager to use our services.

The 'refresh' service is just that — an overhaul replating to bring your beloved mouthpiece back to pristine condition and perfect to play on at the Area contests."

Turn around

David added: "We are also able to turn around these orders in anything between 24 and 48 hours — so if it something of an emergency, we are here to help. All players need to do is get in touch and explain about their requirements such as satin or bright finishes in gold, silver and rose gold."
