Clean your instrument after each use
While learning the saxophone, Guillain developed a passion for mechanics and the making of instruments when, as a university art history student, he took his instrument to a repair shop.
He then decides to stop university to follow the training in instrumental making, wind instruments option, provided at the European Technological Institute for Music Professions. He learned the trade from an apprenticeship master passionate about old instruments, who himself was trained in the workshops of Buffet Crampon, Selmer.
For a few years, he managed a music store specializing in wind instruments in the south of France. He then decides to join the Boullard Musique team where he can both offer his expert advice to customers for the purchase of their wind instrument and also devote himself to repair.
What fascinates Guillain is to understand how the instrument works at the mechanical level, to do the disassembly / reassembly, the adjustments, to know the influence of materials.
