First, let me conclude.

I will write about why, including my personal experience.

Among them, the most common things written are
Even if you go to a vocational school, there are almost no jobs available for repairmen!
It is.
I say this from my experience and position as a vocational school graduate and professional repairman,
"No" for those who leave it to others.
I think that is true.
What does that mean?To be a repairer, you have to do what it takes to be a repairer.to become a repairman.

They also think that you have some common language about musical instruments.
(If I amTCThe same was true when I was interviewing for a position to hire a repairman for a musical instrument.)

It's okay to put that kind of thing on the back burner.
The main reason why you should go to a technical school is to become a part of the musical instrument industry, even if it's just a small corner of it.
Becoming a member and taking action to become a repairman is a sure way to become a repairman.
Of course, even after you become a repairman, it is important to take action on your own.
