Personalized Service

Nothing brings me more joy than thoroughly helping my customers get what they have been searching to find. In such a specialized world, saxophones must meet your desires. Even if we don't necessarily need to customize all that much, I know that just being asked will help you confirm that your sax or mouthpiece is setup the way you need it to be.

I stand by the countless references of former & returning clients. You can count on WWS's expertise and care for your requests.

Saxophones

Saxophone SalesWe sell saxophones from our inventory, local and international customer consignments; sometimes "As Is" or "Rebuilt" and/or customized to your requests. We can also help you sell your sax.
RebuildsA full disassembly and installation of new parts with coordinated upgrades per request.
Playing Condition WorkA"Tune-up"--often referred to as "PC Work" or "COA". Although mostly for local customers, these adjustments are often paired with our "Full Oils" & cleaning option. Please inquire.

Mouthpiece Work

Repairs & Customization - Mouthpieces are a crucial part of the instrument and are highly personal. It truly is an art to craft the Tip, baffle, table and other parts of your mouthpiece to shape your sound.

Student Rentals

Currently for local Washington customers only, this wing of WWS is a service to the growing musicians. It continued out of my teaching passion as kids often came to class with unbranded saxes that didn't function properly.

Plating Services

Spot plating on mouthpieces or saxes can be done in the shop. Heavy plating can be coordinated as part scheduled rebuild work. SILVER, GOLD, NICKEL, ROSE GOLD...

Restorations

(Sadly - all Major Restoration projects are Discontinued for the time being)

Silver restorations were always the most common. We do not "Re-Lacquer" saxes. While not every sax can qualify for the labor-intensive work of a Restoration, we have done more than a few sentimental projects to bring saxes back to life! You don't need a 5-digit Selmer to warrant having this type of Restoration.
