George,

Here are three place that always come very highly recommended.  Contact 
them for prices, they are not cheap, good work is expensive.  Kanstul is 
building a lot of horns these days, but I think they still do repairs 
too.   Oberloh does amazing things, check out the photos on his web 
site.  Wayne Tanabe of the Brass Bow now works for Yamaha in New York, 
you'll have to check and see if the Brass Bow is still operating.  Their 
web site is still up.
