Colette has been working with instruments for years, she knows most of them. In his life he has worked with them in two major stages. One was when she started in the repair business. Back then all he did was repair broken instruments. For example, broken guitar strings, problems with piano keys, or a flute covered in dust due to lack of use. That was the easiest thing in the beginning, then it evolved into more difficult things like repairing much more complex instruments. He had a small workshop in the center of the city of Buskeria. Everyone knew her for doing her job well. Musicians came from all over the region. So that small workshop had to grow several times.
That was just the first phase of evolution. The big thing came later, the repair changed towards customizable design. That phase arose from an assignment that was brought to him. It was an old violin. A young girl brought it to him. In addition to wanting it repaired, she also asked Colette to change certain things and transform it into a violin tailored to her needs. When Colette finished the job, that girl was delighted with the result. So he started telling everyone in Buskeria, and those others to others. And that's how more and more orders arrived. People no longer came for repairs, what they wanted were custom designs for their instruments. And Colette had to adapt to that new type of business. With that his life changed.
Colette lleva años trabajando con instrumentos, los conoce a la mayoría. En su vida ha trabajado con ellos en dos grandes etapas. Una fue cuando ella inició en el negocio de la reparación. En aquel entonces lo único que hacía era reparar los instrumentos rotos. Por ejemplo unas cuerdas de una guitarra reventada, problemas en las teclas de un piano, o una flauta tupida por el polvo por falta de uso. Eso fue lo más fácil en su comienzo, luego evolucionó hacia cosas más difíciles como la reparación de instrumentos mucho más complejos. Tenía un pequeño taller en el centro de la ciudad de Buskeria. Todos la conocían por hacer bien su trabajo. Venían músicos de todas partes de la región. Así que ese pequeño taller tuvo que crecer varias veces.
Esa fue solo la primera fase de evolución. Lo grande venía después, la reparación cambió hacia diseño personalizable. Esa fase surgió a partir de un encargo que le trajeron. Era un violín viejo. Se lo trajo una chica joven. Además de que quería que se lo reparara ella también le pidió a Colette que le cambiara ciertas cosas y lo transformara en un violín a su medida. Cuando Colette terminó el trabajo esa chica quedó encantada con el resultado. Así que comenzó a contárselos a todos en Buskeria, y esos otros a otros. Y fue así como llegaron más y más encargos. La gente ya no venía por reparaciones, lo que querían eran diseños personalizados de sus instrumentos. Y Colette tuvo que adaptarse a ese nuevo tipo de negocio. Con fue su vida cambió.
Buskeria was where I had the most work, musicians from the 4 islands came. There was no repair too difficult for her, or design too complicated. What the client wanted was always fulfilled. And that gave the business so much fame that it expanded, people began to come from outside the region. That's why a challenge would soon come for her. A famous drummer who was a bit eccentric found out about his fame and the business. He had long wanted a special drum kit, something that would make him stand out within the band and he could be recognized by the drums everywhere. So he went to where she was so she could do this job for him.
Colette was confident so she didn't ask much about what he wanted, he left the instructions and paid in advance, which many did given the confidence and experience she had. But when he left and she finally had time to review what she wanted, she was very impressed. The man wanted an extravagant battery. Made from materials that were not easy to obtain, such as diamonds, gold and rare minerals. She could get them with money, but some were not sold, so she had to look for them one by one wherever they were.
En Buskeria era donde más trabajo tenía, venían músicos de las 4 islas. No había reparación muy difícil para ella, o diseño muy complicado. Lo que deseaba el cliente siempre era cumplido. Y eso le dio tanta fama al negocio que se expandió, empezaron a venir personas desde fuera de la región. Por eso pronto vendría un reto para ella. Un baterista famoso que era un poco excéntrico se enteró de su fama y del negocio. El llevaba tiempo deseando una batería especial, algo que lo hiciera destacar dentro de la banda y pudiera ser reconocido por la batería en todas partes. Así que el se dirigió hasta donde estaba ella para que le hiciera este trabajo.
Colette estaba confiada así que no preguntó mucho que era lo que quería, el dejó las instrucciones y pagó por adelantado, cosa que muchos hacían dada la confianza y experiencia que ella tenía. Pero cuando el se fue y ella por fin tuvo tiempo para revisar que era lo que quería se impresionó mucho. El señor quería una batería extravagante. Echa de materiales que no eran nada fáciles de conseguir, como diamantes, oro y minerales raros. Ella podía conseguirlos con dinero, pero algunos no se vendían, así que tocaba buscarlos uno a uno en donde sea que estuvieran.
He started working immediately with what he had, he wanted to meet the deadline he had given. He got gold and diamonds easily since they appear with money. But the rest of the minerals needed for the decoration were not easy. She then offered money on mining rigs, and in places where it was known to exist. But it took a long time to find them. So I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to complete the task if I didn't find them. And the good reputation the business had was at stake.
The more days passed, the more stressed she became. The deadline was approaching. When she thought that all was lost, one of the mineral extraction platforms she paid for found the minerals she was looking for and she was able to finish the construction of the extravagant battery in time. And he handed it over.
The singer was delighted with her and recommended her to more friends. Now he has many more assignments than before, but he learned a lesson from this experience: it is better to review things carefully before accepting anything. He will continue repairing and creating instruments, that is his passion but with that lesson.
Don't miss the opportunity to become a Rising Star.
