We don't accept credit cards in the shop, but you can use your credit card to pay through Pay Pal...  just log into your account and use the  "send money"  tab to make your deposit,  or payment, to worldwidesax@verizon.net     Please add a note in the message area, that states what it's for, with serial or other description, if possible.

Below are the links to the various pages of the site, link access changes as you visit other pages, if you get stuck, use your back button to come back to the home page and click around  again.

If you wish to schedule a rebuild, or purchase one of our saxes (and it still needs to be rebuilt),  send us  a 50% deposit to hold your place in my work schedule.  I work from a published schedule (see left margin) so that your sax will only be out of your possession a couple weeks, while i do the actual work, it does not have to just sit on the shop floor, until it's turn comes up... you send it to arrive on schedule and we return it on schedule.

  E-mail "the sarge" with  questions about our vintage saxes at:   worldwidesax@verizon.net  

 Click the links above  to see what's in stock.   If  a horns says "just rebuilt", then it's ready to go, saxes that say "scheduled for a rebuild" are waiting for the work to be done, but it will be included in the posted price.  If a sax says "ON TRIAL" someone is taking advantage of our "Three Day Trial" policy (See Info and Orders page).

Here is a pic of some custom resonator work.  We can size the reso to your tonehole, or whatever you like.

We can get you virtually any resonator made, my favorite is the  Resotech solid silver reso.

Keilwerth made The New King and Tone King  as their main brand names, from 1932 to 1969 or so, but there were always stencils, like Edgeware and later Couf.  Here are few of the other names you may find on Keilwerth made horns.  The new king and tone king saxes were identical except for a high F# key on the tone king model, but keilwerth marketed the Tone King as the "deluxe" Pro model and the New King as the "standard" Pro model

Couf Superba 1 & 2

OK.... he's not the grandson of the Late Great Tenor player.

NO... he is not a bari sax player with a funny nickname.

Just added to our stock:

Just in:  57k, early Selmer MK VI Alto:  This is a customer consignment.  It's original, beautiful and very desireable.  I just Totally Rebuilt it with a "Premium French" rebuild, with Prestini NonStick pads, SBA style solid silver resotech reso's and premium Tech cork, Synth cork, Ultrasuede and Teflon.  I have seem beautifies like this go for 12000.00+ on the east coast, but this customer is motivated, as his son just stopped playing it at college.  include new Selmer replacement case.  7999.00  ready to go!

  1941 Buescher "Big B" Tenor:  Another superb tenor, in the 298,xxx range, Original Lacquer.  It needs burnishing, on a couple small dents in the body tube and the neck... i'm fixing them now.  (pics are before rebuild and burnishing)    Due to their popularity, these small bore, parabolic models have become very hard to come by, hence the prices have gone up, but they are a bargain for what great horns they really are.   They are versatile, focused sounding, comfortable playing tenors, with better intonation than most, even including Selmer.  I also need to burnish out several small dents in the bow, but it's a good looking sax and with a complete rebuild, is will play as nice as it look.     It has it's original pads and snap in domes everywhere else, so i will do a faithful Buescher snap in rebuild, with metal backed pads to make it feel original  2099.00. in progress

(pics coming soon) Silver Buescher Aristocrat Big "B" Bari:   (On Consignment from Chadd Berry) Serial number 349,xxx with original neck.  It's a 1954-55 and it's had a busy life and gained all the usual bumps and scratches that baris always seem to get.  There's a very well done inscription near the bottom of the bell "Bd. of Ed.  N.Y.C. 1955" {Board of Education New York City 1955}.   90+% Original Silver plate--body is Satin with shiny keys and a Gold wash bell, a few bigger dents near the bottom of the bow that we will do our best to pull out.  Also intend to remove the neck curl to remove so larger dents.  A few patches are on the neck...they were done well but we will see if we can buff them down and satin silver them to match the body. (1.5 keyguards have been lost [low Eb, half of low B],  we will fabricate exact replacements and silver plate to match. Also missing 1 or 2 snaps. We might have some replacements for them.)   The Big B Baris have a warm focused sound like the other models(tenor/alto).  Comes in the original hard shell case in fair/good condition.  We haven't decided whether or not to Gold OR Rose Gold the bell.  Tell us which one you want!   I will do a Buescher snap in rebuild with metal backed pads AND a premium upgrade with teflon and ultraswede AND re-Gold(or Rose Gold) the bell. All included for:   3500.00  Contact us to specify your desires! Starting rebuild 2nd week of July.

I just added new mouthpieces at our vintage mouthpiece page, check them out!

    I have been lucky to make many friends and am blessed with more business than one man can handle...  because of that, i always have a long waiting list, so i have come up with a system that works.  i have a work queue... people who want work done send me a 50% deposit to have their work added to the queue.  Then when their turn comes up, they ship the horn to arrive a couple days before work is scheduled to start.  the queue is posted on the left margin of my website pages and is updated weekly.  Doing it this way, your sax only has to be out of your possession a couple weeks.

       My "Work Schedule"  consists of one rebuild every 10 days and some of those will be WWS horns that are going to customers.  So, i'm not real speedy and i really don't want to have other people do my work for me, or enlarge the shop and have different workers doing different levels of work.   Beside from doing the restoration work, there is the time consumed by "running the business"  and answering the phone, that never stops ringing, so i hope my system can keep my customers  happy.

 I will always be just as available as i have been for the last ten years and always happy to help, with the best customer service i can muster...   If you are patient and like my style, then by all means let me do my best, for you.

    thanks,  sarge

Complete rebuilds:

Sorry, we prefer not to sell our WWS stock horns in "as is" condition.  If we get it and it's not "near new", we will automatically completely rebuild it, in time.  Also, do to the busy schedule we keep, we don't have time to do P/C work ( that is... pad repairs on your horns, we always squeeze in time to keep WWS horns in great shape for our previous customers)  It's a small 2 man shop and we are always super busy.

Our  "French Standard" Selmer-style rebuild prices start at:

One of the most common questions i get asked is, "How do i get to reserve a spot in your work schedule, or how long until a WWS stock horn gets rebuilt?  The best plan i have been able to devise, is a Deposit System.   Work, on almost anything, gets scheduled right away when i receive a deposit for the work (or sax) you have interest in.  Email me and ask about what interests you, then we can discuss my next schedule opening, see if it works for you... and how to get me the deposit that makes the wheels roll.
