These are GREAT horns when they are setup and playing well.

\"Randy Jones has got to be one of the foremost sax experts in the world. Randy helped me find an incredible tenor. . . . and then he and his first-rate team managed to make that horn play even better than I would have ever thought possible. I think one of the things that sets Randy apart is that he not only has the knowledge and the experience, but also the enthusiasm and the passion to take each instrument to the next level. Randy truly loves saxophones. He cares enough to bring out the full potential of every great horn.\"
-Joshua Redman
\"Randy is definitely the guy to see if you\'re looking to find a great horn or want to get your horn set-up in absolutely top shape. His selection of beautiful instruments is like nothing I\'ve seen in my life (I tried so many amazing tenors, my head was spinning!) His passion and knowledge about the saxophone is immense, and every horn I tried that he had worked on played like a perfect gem. Also, Randy and his family and everyone at the shop are just really friendly, straight ahead people, I had a great time hanging out with them.\"
-Chris Potter
\"It takes a while to find someone who has the same passion and love for the saxophone as the people out there playing them. Randy is the man. He is a perfectionist. He knows the history of the saxophone and all its models. All the idiosyncrasies of all the models and what they need is just the beginning with him. Good thing I don\'t live next door or I would never leave him alone.\"
-Jerry Bergonzi
\"Hi Randy! Just a note to tell your clients how much fun I had at your store last week...it was a blast. Where can you play so many great horns that have been worked on by a real artist!!! Randy is as passionate about working on these horns as I am playing them. And thanks for helping to find my favorite tenors Randy!!!!\"
-Eddie Daniels
\"I recently flew out to Iowa to spend an afternoon at Tenor Madness, and it was well worth the trip. Randy had one of the largest collections of top-tier vintage Selmers I have ever seen, and after playing every one of them I bought a tenor that is basically my dream horn. Randy, Jim, and the rest of the Tenor Madness family are true artists at what they do, and I have never met anyone as genuinely committed as these guys to helping me find the horn and sound Iʼve been looking for. I must also say that Randyʼs pad work is some of the best out there. If you are looking for a new or vintage horn these are the people to go to.\"
