Welcome to BKK SAX! This website is about our saxophones, what we can do to improve your saxophones, about saxophones in general, about everything saxophone in and around Bangkok…and possibly even some about Bangkok that has almost nothing to do with saxophones at all!

About us

We build custom and “Artist” versions of Vibrato Saxophones with enhanced tone, intonation and mechanism feel. We also improve your Vibrato or customize it to your wishes. Come and see us when you are in Bangkok.

We started as a production workshop for Vibrato, and we still make production models. Every Vibrato Alto is hand-made from hundreds of parts, each one requiring multiple skillful worksteps. After the years, we have come up with a few hundred more worksteps that result in an instrument that will make you neglect your Mark VI, or 6-M, or Top, Hat and Cane….possibly.

The driver of this madness is a passion for saxophones and the pleasure of blowing one that really sings, and – trust me – Vibrato altos can REALLY sing when they are set up our way.

I have been collecting, overhauling, repairing, customizing and playing vintage saxes for more then 15 years before joining the Vibrato family. I plan to feature some of these pieces here if my time allows. After all, I am doing this for the fun of it.

This is also the reason why we can currently only serve saxlovers who come to Bangkok. We need to see the smile on your face as our reward.
