I live on the other side of the globe in Aotearoa, beautiful New Zealand. A paradise on earth. Anyone who knows it, from photographs or has been there in person, will agree. In summer 2023, it was time to visit my family and friends in the Rheinriver Valley in Germany. And during a happy get-together with friends, I learned that the Rhineland has its very own ‘paradise’! Watching the video “Passion and Profession” confirmed it, speaking from my heart. And this is how I met Reiner in his saxophone paradise, and soon appreciated his expertise and most welcoming way.

I really just wanted to have a look, browse through those lovely instruments, all presented so wonderfully to show their unique character and uniqueness.
And then I fell in love. With MY saxophone.

Reiner was wonderful in his support, his manner easily described: With passion and profession.

So I flew back home “as a couple”, Mr. Silver and I have grown together since then, forming an inseparable bond. My joy to ‘play my horn’ has grown even more. Music, playing my sax, is my passion and devotion. With the right instrument, which feels like my other half, the extension of my breath, it is a truly wonderful experience.
My heartfelt gratitude goes to Reiner and his team.

I got further in one single tryout session at Saxophonic than in 40 years of desperate travel-cost-intensive searching.

It was my second path that took me to Saxophonic, the first I could really have done without… the start on this path was made more than easy for me by the Saxophonic Team (Reiner, Marion and the sympathetic photographer Felix)! Already just the selection of the Saxophone was a pleasure, I recommend it for everybody!

As soon as I entered this fantastic shop, a really special Saxophone caught my eye.

Following your certified overhaul of my Horn, dear Reiner, the response is lighter and even more gentle – fantastic job, many, many thanks!!!

An incredible shop for professionals! Along with the broad selection of instruments and expert consultation, single booths are available for trying everything out in peace.

The Espresso tastes good too.

The visit to Saxophonic was a complete surprise; I have never before experienced a beautiful and relaxed day in a music store like the one I spent at Saxophonic…

It’s like going to a chamber play at the theater and participating in the performance yourself – that’s something that leaves behind its marks forever. My thanks go out to you, Reiner!!

Super selection, support, service.

Outstanding unassertive consultation. Great atmosphere. Beautiful instruments and 1a service offers. Absolutely thrilled.

I can’t thank Reiner and his Team enough for a magnificent Selmer Mark VI. Reiner took the time to guide me through the highlights of his incredible inventory of over 150 Vintage Selmers and place my unique instrument in a proper context. The only thing that matches your passion is the love for detail and quality of the work you dedicate to the instrument. Top quality! There is no higher recommendation…

Long time no see, but the trip to your shop is always worthwhile. My first address for expertise in the sector! Also to be recommended are the Workshops for the different technical skills and levels of knowledge.

In my opinion, yours is not only an important shop for Saxophones and accessories, you have truly become an active center for promoting and further training Saxophonists with your Workshops and Newsletter. And on top of that, your Team is professionally competent as well as empathetic and appreciative.

So again, thank you very much,

Many thanks for the very good and competent advice and the truly large selection of Selmer Saxophones. As an ambitioned hobby Saxophonist, I was able here and at my own leisure to play through a wide assortment and find “my” Saxophone. Reiner was right there at my side with patience to spare and the best expert advice imaginable. I can only say that this shop is the one to go to, and I look forward to returning.

Super-fast help, excellent consultation, great service.

The tone of this horn is full of silky character and soul, this sax is a great player, the overhaul work you have done is excellent, the action plays super fast and the notes flow from this baby !!

Many, many thanks to you.

I wanted to express my gratitude. After your good advice, I purchased a Selmer MK VI which gives me great enjoyment. It’s always a pleasure to come to your shop because the offers are reliable and the pricing for trade-in instruments is fair. And naturally the atmosphere and cappuccino should not go unmentioned.

Hello Reiner,

my wife and I were just at your shop and were given a really great introduction. Your charming and unassertive manner was a true reflection of your top-quality consulting. We both felt completely at ease and well-looked-after. For me, a dream came true, and you played a substantial role in that. It was really an experience to remember, and we are already looking forward to seeing you when we visit your workshop again. So once more, we extend our greatest thanks and also our kindest regards.

Dear people from Saxophonic, heartfelt thanks for the fantastic job you did of overhauling my Mark 6! Nothing is for free, but you deliver what you promise, and top quality at that.

The Horn was janky, but now plays like new. Tight mechanics and light response and anyway tight.

Kudos for the team and, again, thanks.

Dear Reiner, once again, thank you very much for the great day I had at your shop. The opportunity to test so many fascinatingly diverse Vintage Selmers all at once is a dream! That was definitely my Corona highpoint!

The Horn is super – I can’t wait for the first gig.

Thank you once again for the very warm hospitality in your shop. By far the most beautiful shop I’ve ever been in… you have something to by quite proud of… my complements!!!! Jonas and I both noticed that all of the horns have been superbly overhauled… Great job!

I bought my Mark VI Alto with high F# key at Reiner’s because everything surrounding service and sales was uniquely good. After enjoying a delicious coffee, I was able to try out ca. 15 top-notch Selmer and Yanagisawa Saxophones in the practice rooms with a wonderful view. When I felt an adjustment of the mechanics was needed, Reiner took care of it with expertise, or advised me superbly in response to my questions concerning the different Saxophones. All in all, the visit to Neukirchen-Vluyn was worth the trip if only for the tastefully outfitted establishment and fantastic service. My gratitude goes out to the whole Saxophonic Team for my wonderful new Saxophone.

Absolutely unique worldwide!

+ TOP service, a cooperative and cordial dealer who reserves time for his customers

+ Possibly the widest selection worldwide of Mark VI instruments and other modern top-notch Saxophones

+ Every instrument is in perfect condition

+ Very affordable prices compared to other dealerships selling Mark VI instruments.

Hello Rainer, this is truly a sensational Horn. Likely the best MK 6 I ever had. Thanks to your general overhaul, it plays almost by itself.

I am so glad I found you! … pulled in lots of offers, but never got such good and honest advice as yours. That’s why I finally took the chance and am now elated and happy about the new world that just opened up for me. Can it really be so easy? Finally, I have all the notes …

Dear Reiner,

Heartfelt thanks for everything!! I am extremely overjoyed with the SBA.

I can’t praise you enough. The way you revised the instrument, helped me when testing it, picked me up all the way at the train station, your incredible expertise and the finest nuances you detect in the sound. And naturally your sympathetic and honest manner.

I hope I can manage to make it your way again. It’s really worth the trip.
