Blue Note Music

Straubinger Certified Technician

How busy am I?? At this time the shop is pretty busy with a number of larger jobs (Overhauls and COA's). For estimate appointments you are probably looking about two weeks out from today's date. I can see you sooner if you wish to leave your instrument with me, but the repair won't happen right away. If you have questions I am still happy to chat by phone, text or email.

 

I focus on the instrument. You focus on the music.
Saxophone, flute and clarinet repairs and sales for beginners to pros.

What I Offer

I care about your instrument as much as you do.

Personal Attention

I meet personally with every client to discuss their needs and make sure they leave with a clear understanding of what work was done and why.

Craftsmanship

My goal is to get every instrument playing as well it possibly can with advanced techniques, precision and relentless attention to detail.

Do it Right

Strive to do the best work possible to ensure it is done right the first time. I rarely have to re-do work, but if there is an issue, bring it back and I will take care of it.

Testimonials

Selmer Mark VI tenor – “OMG!!  You did a FANTASTIC job on my tenor!  ….much smoother playing and more in tune!!  Thanks so much!!  Very FUN to play again.”  L.B. – Calgary

Yamaha Baritone Sax – “Thanks for putting in the time to come up with the innovative octave pip repair that makes such a great difference. It will be more relaxing to play. It’s like having a new horn!” Robin – Calgary

1934 Buescher New Aristocrat – “Wow, it’s fantastic. Completely outplays the Keilwerth SX90 I’ve been using.  And I didn’t realize just how badly out of regulation my True Tone is. This feels like it just came off the assembly line.  Thanks again, I’m very pleased with it.” Marc – Athens, Georgia

1950’s (?) Martin Freres Clarinet – “Just a quick note to express my appreciation for the great job you did on my Martin Frere’s clarinet. Having played it now a few times I must say that the instrument now shows an expressive beautiful tone and timbre, as well as an ease for the player which  is the good result of your restoration.  Thank you so much for your expertise and willingness to bring this clarinet from the stage of being an unplayable old relic to a fine musical instrument.”  R.V. – Calgary

Yamaha EX Alto Sax – “Thank for your work on my alto saxophone. What a difference. It is the best it has ever played!”  N.L. – Calgary
