I’m not listing his number on my website, but of course you can contact me if you hear anything about these. NONE of the items are covered by the owner’s insurance because they are used for professional purposes.

Which reminds me …
If you play professionally you need to have your instruments insured properly. Homeowner’s insurance will not cover them. If you have them insured by someone who does cover professionals be sure you understand how you are covered. (Some companies won’t cover them if they are stolen from a music locker, college office or room, or dorm. Some won’t cover them if they are stolen from you car but were not in the trunk.) If you don’t play professionally, you still need to make sure your homeowner’s insurance covers your instruments … and they probably won’t if you haven’t contacted them about owning them.

And yes, I insure my reed making equipment as well. You should too!
