GTA Dealers

[WorldIRC]

Any saxophone / wind dealers in the GTA that specialize in Winds, including saxophones. One thing I find about Steve's or Long or Cosmo is they don't specialize in Winds.

This isn't such a big deal given that Long & McQuade has experts in their store and have the entire upper floor of their main store dedicated to wind instruments. It's hard to be profitable in Canada if you limit your focus too much.

Having said that, Ken Fornetran has a shop called Ken Fornetran Woodwinds. Look up the number. He keeps odd hours, but he's a good guy who is a fine player and repairman.

Brian - Cosmo has an entire separate location devoted to band instruments in Richmond Hill.

Long & McQuade's Bloor St. location has about the best selection of band instruments and accessories you'll find in the GTA.

St. John's Music on Avenue Rd. is primarily a school band dealer, so their m/p selection is limited, but they have good horns.
