Woodwind Tech
Saxophone Repads and Repair

Woodwind Tech provides professional care to your woodwind instrument. Whether it be a repad, overhaul, or other repair work, Dave Henry of Woodwind Tech gives each instrument personal attention. A quality repad will restore your instrument to a playing condition, possibly even better than when it was purchased new. Dave has been repairing and learning new techniques for 30 years.

I also play sax, so I am aware of how the instrument should respond. Sometimes just one bad pad can prevent a sax from playing easily.

If you are not in need of a repad, I will also effect necessary repairs only. Or, if you just have a question,
