Musical instrument repairers are responsible for building, repairing, restoring and performing maintenance on musical instruments. Sometimes instrument repairers date instruments and look for information about their history. These instruments may be used at music schools or companies, or be exhibited at museums or heritage interpretation centres. Most repairers, considering the specialised nature of restoration techniques and the knowledge required, specialise in particular families of instruments such as string instruments, percussion, brass or woodwind, and keyboards, or in specific instruments such as the guitar or the violin.
Tasks
Build new musical instruments that require great precision and accuracy, since the slightest variation may have a major effect on an instrument's sound.
Repair instruments that are in a poor condition or damaged (for instance, cracks in violins, or replacing the damaged parts of a trumpet).
Tune instruments to ensure they produce the best possible sound.
Apply the final layers to new instruments.
Work with different materials such as wood, metal, plastic and fibre glass.
Refresh their knowledge and train in new techniques and specific repair techniques for the types of instruments in which they specialise.
Diagnose issues with faulty instruments.
Repairers' tasks may vary significantly depending on their specialisation.

Complementary training
Specialised courses in the type of instruments they repair, for example, string, woodwing-brass, string-wood. Additionally, specialised restoration courses on the restoration of instruments made out of skin, intestine or rubber. Knowledge of museology. Training in fine arts.
Other specific skills
Knowledge of music (harmony, composition). Master luthiers and other specialists take apprentices to whom they teach specific techniques, considering the highly artisanal nature of this type of profession.
Experience is of vital importance for musical instrument repairers. Experience acquired at workshops or specialised instrument repair schools, which generally ranges from 4 to 5 years, as well as the number of instruments they have restored, are major advantages for repairers.
People who show an interest in the artistic field enjoy expressing ideas and feelings through the language of art A creative spirit and the motivation to convey concepts or emotions are inherent to this interest. This field includes all the activities that are oriented towards creating artistic products in their various forms: works that are musical, cinematographic or visual in nature, as well as dance and related arts.
Mechanical handling
People related to the field of mechanical handling are interested in the assembly, maintenance, repair and use of machines, tools and installations. Some good examples of professional activities in the field of mechanical handling are adjusting and configuring machines, reviewing technical equipment to detect incidents in their operation, handling machinery in production processes and driving specialised vehicles.
If they are employed externally, they will generally work full-time and fixed hours (usually coinciding with standard commercial opening hours). If they have their own business, they set their own working conditions. Depending on the instrument, they may have to travel to wherever it is located and repair it on site, whenever suits the customer best.
Salary
Musical instrument repairers' salaries may range from 18,000 to 35,000 euros per annum gross, depending on their experience and reputation.
Other features
Joining professional associations is recommended.
Self-employment

The culture sector, where employment is concerned, offers a wide range of opportunities. We are referring to occupations relating to heritage, the book or music industries, performance arts, audiovisual production, applied arts, and more. This is because overriding factors such as an increase in the amount of free time people enjoy, greater life expectancies, and higher education levels are fuelling a demand for new services which spell a growth in the number of job opportunities. Nevertheless, Barcelona's cultural profile, which represents one of the city's distinctive features, also has a positive effect on growing employment opportunities in this sector.
