KB SAX

KB SAX trades in the steady heartbeat of the neighborhood’s music scene. The store sits on 44-02 23rd St Studio 120, in Long Island City, where brass and reeds still carry their own weight. Used horns line the cases alongside mouthpieces clasped in velvet. A quiet corner hosts reeds, straps, and valve oil—no labels need to shout. Gig bags lean against the wall and cases stack in tidy rows, their clasps clicking shut when a customer pauses to hum a tune.

The business answers at (212) 683-2985, ready for calls on everything from a Saturday pickup to a weekday repair. Find the map and directions at https://www.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x89c25929cb5bfb29:0x487b377606a4be47
