We 💛 our new Ishimori Wood Stone saxophones and we hope you will too!

Master craftsman Shinji Ishimori launched the Woodstone brand in the late 1990s. What began with handcrafted ligatures has since expanded to include mouthpieces, reeds, and other accessories along with saxophones.

We’ve just received two 'Super Custom' Altos and a 'New Vintage' tenor, which are all ready to find their new home.

Interested in trialing one of these fine instruments? Give our saxophone specialist a call at (612) 331-4717 or send an email to [email protected]! 🎷

Oh no, this contra is broken! Just kidding, it's supposed to come apart. We just got this Kronwalt contrabassoon in from Wolf! Not only does it come apart and fit in this brilliant case, it also sounds amazing and is super even and clear. If you're a contra player, we'd love for you to experience this instrument at our store and showroom!

Please see the website for pricing details. We do have a waitlist for trial for this instrument, so get in touch if you'd like to be on it!
