About Me
- JoAnn Gaunt
- Leawood, Kansas, United States
- Before deciding to become a Band Instrument Repair Tech, I studied music at Fort Hays State University (Hays, Kansas). I received my B.A. in music from them. There I studied Saxophone and Clarinet under Dr. Kristen Pisano. I also studied voice under Dr. Joe Perniciaro, and Jazz Improvisation under Brad Dawson. I am a member of Sigma Alpha Iota, a music fraternity, and I served as the FHSU chapter Vice President of Rituals. While in high school I earned many of my undergraduate hours at Barton County Community College. There I studied saxophone with Steven Lueth and piano with Karole Erickson. I also graduated with a diploma of Band Instrument Repair from Southeast Technical College in Red Wing, Minnesota in 2011.

I finished my project trumpet today!!!!! The dents are out, it is greased, ported, and ready to go!!! I am now working on a replacing a mouth pipe, just for practice. I unsoldered the mouthpiece receiver and the upper outer slide tube, and then scraped the excess solder from the pieces I was going to reuse. I cut the new mouth pipe to size with a tube cutter, cut buffed them with tripoli, degreased them, and fitted the parts with shimming. I will solder it tomorrow.
