I visited the sax.co.uk store in London recently and the overall service was really bad. Disinterested staff, and it felt like no one could be bothered to help properly. What made the whole experienc... See more

Hi Sax.co.uk, I've had excellent experience from purchasing from your store online. The site is well organised and there are really helpful object tips (for instance from Jules on reeds), which he... See more

This is an export - possibly brexit - problem as far as I can see. I was frustrated after waiting a week for mouthpiece, ligature and reeds, so I ordered from another company and it arrived yesterday.... See more

Vandoren Sax harness

Ordered a Vandoren Sax harness. Very fast delivery. Harness works well and helps with the weight. Thanks Sax.co.uk +++

Update of my experience with sax.co.uk

So within an hour of my previous review stating my disappointment, I had a telephone call from sax.co.uk to explain that the order hadn't been in stock at the time I ordered, but, unfortunately this hadn't been communicated to me. The result was that I was told my order was now in stock and they were sending out to me, by courier, to arrive the following day, which I am pleased to confirm that it did. Not only that but sax.co.uk sent me some reeds to try out as a form of compensation. I have to say, the guys at sax.co.uk turned a disappointing experience around very quickly and I am impressed by that. Result: I will definitely order again. Thank you.

For Sax in London go Sax Uk.

I have purchased many items from Sax UK over the years including a Soprano Saxophone, mouthpieces for my 4 saxophones other accessories and music play along books. I have spent hours in the practise rooms before making my final selections and have enjoyed my conversations with extremely helpful, knowledgeable and accomodating staff. I have nothing but the highest praise and regard for Sax Uk, from the attractive and inviting environment, the large range of instruments and other accessories and from the attentive staff.
Highly recommended.

took my order and payment but had no stock and now have to await their delivery which has been estimated at some weeks in the future!!

My advice is to check they have stock before ordering with this firm.

Dear Andy,

Many thanks for your feedback. It appears that there had been a slight misunderstanding over the original email that we sent you. The goods were only delayed by a few days and as you'll have hopefully seen by now your order was actually shipped directly to you yesterday. Do get in touch with our Customer Services team by emailing help@sax.co.uk or calling 01892 662533 if you need more assistance.

All the best,

Sax.co.uk

Have just received my new Midnight Black Alto Sax. Although on back order and so had to wait some weeks it has arrived and I'm very pleased with it.
Tried it out yesterday and it works perfectly. I look forward to beginning to play and practice regularly. Lovely looking instrument, a little heavier than I imagined but the finish and workmanship look very good. The tone is full, deep and resonant. Seems responsive and easy to play, that is, I already get some good notes out in that distinctly cool way. Service and e-mail enquiries are first class with help and responses. Very positive. Plenty of info and demos on the website.

Helpful advice

Thank you. I needed a new mouthpiece and was unsure what to go for. The helpful advice was invaluable and the mouthpiece arrived on time. Thank you.

Expert service from Sax.co.uk

I have been using Sax.Co.Uk for over 12 years and have always found the the service to be excellent and very professional. If you shop around you might find slightly better prices, but the expert advise from Sax.co. Uk is well worth that little bit extra a product might cost.
