It has been a fun year putting all the pieces into place.
The aim was to be strategic, thorough, and balanced with the continued endeavours of our partners. This was accomplished, establishing another dynamic platform to share the wonderful developments of Fiberreed, Nadir Saxwind, Theo Wanne Instruments, Forestone, and Chasson Guitars. It is a privilege to work closely with these companies and their renowned inventors and entrepreneurs. They are dear friends and valued partners.

It continues to be a fun and rewarding journey. And now, we are turning up the volume to 11. The Wedge has launched!

NEW AND COOL!
The Fiberreed Story - Stage 1 of 8
After Harry split with Hahn in 1996, he wanted to improve the reed. The black rubber would move over time. With ideas in mind, Harry began development of The Yellow Rubber Reed. Follow the rest of the story here!
Nadir's 10 x Gold Plating
Nadir Saxwind's Dave Guardala and Nadir model saxophone mouthpieces all boast extraordinary gold and silver plating. The gold and silver finishes have been tested over the entire mouthpiece, measuring 10 times higher than the industry average. This finish is an investment in the mouthpiece; a premium, German crafted, work of art.
Forestone Cryo Treated Saxophones
New, state-of-the-art, two-step gas and liquid process produces stress-free metal for a better sound and faster response! -196 C Forestone horns are enhanced with a state-of-the-art Cryogenic process, freeing up vibrations and bringing the beautiful sound to new heights!
The Rocking Mindi Abair Signature
Mindi is a 2-time Grammy nominee who’s toured with Aerosmith, been featured on American Idol, won a 2015 She Rocks Award for Mad Skills, and filled in for Clarence Clemons with Bruce Springsteen. She knows how to rock a saxophone. The Mindi Abair Custom Mouthpiece has been a full-on, half-decade, collaboration, between Theo Wanne and Mindi Abair to make the ultimate powerhouse alto mouthpiece!
Rare Legacy Chasson Guitar Available
This was one of Kent's first Classic models. It is basically a steel string guitar in a classical body. Kent built his first guitars in 1979 under the guidance of Tom Newsome. Newsome learned from Hascal Haile, renowned for his steel-string guitars with classical style fan-bracing. Guitar #26 (of 106) was a successful experiment to replicate that technique. It has a unique voice with sweet trebles, rich overtones, and warmth in the low end. This guitar is very well suited to fingerstyle or light cross-picking. It responds to a light touch but has excellent dynamic range. The small body and shorter scale length make it a joy to play.
