I had a fantastic experience with Tom and John at Headwind. After dropping my sax but needing it that same night for a show, the guys brought it back to life for me and even had it sounding better than before the incident! I’ll be back to them next time I’m in Bristol, and honestly can’t recommend them enough for their professionalism and service - it’s a real gem of a place for Woodwind players.

Every time I go to Headwind I have an incredible customer experience. The staff are knowledgeable, helpful and excellent at solving problems. I can't speak highly enough about them.

Very helpful staff, only sold me what I needed and gave me plenty of time to decide what that was. Postal orders always arrive promptly and are competitively priced
