Ethan Stock
I have been in the music world since day one. I received my first guitar when I was 6, and began learning the trumpet when I was 10. I also play piano and a little drums. If it's an instrument, I will try my best to play it.
​I attended University of Wisconsin Fox Valley for two years studying music education and music theory. Having a history of working on and playing multiple instruments, I decided to enter the world of instrument repair. My specialty is brass, but I am learning more as time goes on.
