Can anyone recommend a website besides www.sax.co.uk and www.normans.co.uk where I can get a saxophone gig bag and neck strap from?? PLEASE!!!

We bought our Sax Gig bag from Booths in Bolton. Then we live in Manchester but they do have a website.

Don't understand why you don't like sax.co.uk, never used normans. Others are www.howarth.uk.com and www.myatt.co.uk, although I can't vouch for the online service of either. You do know that a gig-bag for your saxophone gives it minimal protection? If you're carrying it in a gig-bag you still need to be very careful with it.

I have used Normans and www.myatt.co.uk , and both have great online service and quick delivery

Thanks, it is just for getting it too and from school as the case I have for it is really heavy.

John Myatt is very good, quick helpful service.
You can phone them for advice first - recommend you talk to Adrian, he's their 'sax man'.

You can try Wood Wind & Reed in Cambridge - online service is good and so is the help on the phone. If you want advice, speak to Thomas Dryer-Beers, ever so helpful and knowledgeable.

Tsax is absolutely right about gig-bags, they offer hardly any protection. One of the best, and longest lasting is the Hiscox - it is SO strong. There's Berkeley - come in a range of garish colours!! and Pro-Tech is supposed to be good. None is cheap but they will last for almost ever and look after your sax.

Are you talking alto and what make? What sort of case was supplied with the instrument?

Myatt are good...

So are SaxUK - why not them??

Alto Saxophone I think it is buffet. It came in a hard case which is really heavy.

I just wanted to look at the different sites to see the variety and price ranges.
