Reynolds began as an apprentice with the Brass band instrument manufacturer J.W. York. At York he learned brass band instrument design in a tradition that traced its lineage back through James York, the company's founder to the company where he learned the craft, the Boston Musical Instrument Company, which in turn had been formed by the union of the E.G. Wright Company (est. 1841) and Graves &amp; Co which had been making instruments since the 1820s and the advent of valved brass instruments.
