- entering high school level or college
- instructor is desiring a higher level performance
- seeking improved tone and tonal colors
We are an authorized dealer for intermediate to professional level saxophones. We can customize the sound and feel of the instrument to any particular playing situation and style. Whether you’re playing in a large or small jazz setting, or orchestral setting, we offer instruments of enduring appeal and excellence!
We have traditional finishes as well as contemporary finishes, such as black nickel matte, black nickel gloss, aged patina, silver plated, rich gold or dark amber lacquer, unlacquered, or a mix of finishes. Different finishes produce different timbres and expressiveness of sound.

Remember: Upgrading your mouthpiece is just as important as upgrading your instrument. We carry various brands of mouthpieces with different tip openings, facing, and options of hard rubber or metal to help produce better tone and resonance and easier playability in all registers.
