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

First time saxophonist

Totally satisfied with Sax Co. UK & all their efforts to get my order to me as fast as possible! Jules was especially helpful catching a ligature in my order that wasn’t compatible with a mouthpiece also in my order which they happily replaced with a more compatible one! Imported to the US so first time buyers should be considerate of those import taxes!

Great deal on the Yanagisawa

Great deal on the Yanagisawa. Jules was diligent returning messages to the U.S. The duty fees were about 6% of the purchase price (if UPS delivers) which only took 4 days. If you order from these folks you'll save around $500 on the horn we purchased. Great time to buy? Yes it is.

Multi instrumental new sax

I needed to buy a new sax urgently and Sax.co.uk were excellent in shipping it quickly and in plenty of time for when I needed it! It was set up brilliantly and plays like a dream and it was packaged and shipped really well too!
Highly recommend!!

I am a new customer looking for a present for my wife. Didn't have a clue what I was looking for, the team at sax.co.uk couldn't have been more helpful and patient with my enquiry. I have ordered and taken delivery and had a 5 star service from start to finish - special thanks to Jules. We defiantly be a customer again when we upgrade.

Excellent store and employees

Excellent store and employees, quick delivery, large selection for saxophones but for me not so many accessories for Saxophones.

Thank you for the positive feedback. A bit baffled re the accessories- do let us know where we're falling short here and we'd gladly try and cover other options
