"It's the right approach. These [Key Leaves] things really do the job."
- Eric Beach (Master Repair Tech, Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center)

With nearly 40 years of experience, Eric Beach is one of the most trusted saxophone repair technicians in the DC area. From modern horns to vintage saxophones with decades of history, Eric brings unmatched precision, patience, and care to every repair.

He began his career in a music store, but it was in the back repair shop where he found his true calling. Since then, he’s dedicated himself to mastering the craft—continually learning, refining, and elevating his work.

Eric has a particular passion for vintage saxophones, drawn to the mechanical complexity and the stories they carry. “There’s a grace and beauty about them that’s intriguing,” he says. “I just have to make sure that when someone plays it, they’re able to make it do what they want it to.”
