All saxophones purchased from Kessler & Sons Music include a complete professional setup as well as a 1 year pads & adjustments warranty at no extra charge!

What does our Professional Setup do for you the customer?

No horn comes into our shop from the manufacturers in perfect adjustment. In fact, the longer that the horns have sat in a storage facility or on a shops shelves, the more out of adjustment they typically are. This is due to the felt and leather in the pads losing the compression that forms the "pad seat" causing leaks of air through the pads.

Our Professional Setup prior to shipping is done to ensure that you receive a sax that plays perfectly right out of the box. This way you get the superior performance of the sax without having to have it "setup" by some other technician. As a professional shop, one of the biggest requirements falls on the repair abilities of the shop. Ours is one of the best around!

We have some of the lowest prices in the country on instruments, no other shop can give you this price AND this setup.

We sell only the highest quality alto saxes. We evaluate every brand without a prejudice or preference. We carry only the best. If you don't see what you are looking for here, give us a call! Either Chuck or Dave Kessler will be glad to help you get the sax you are looking for!

If you have any questions, please either call us Toll Free at 1-888-830-0474 Mon-Sat 9:30-6:00 Pacific Time or e-mail Dave Kessler and we will be glad to assist you.
