A Collaboration with Dr. Wally Wallace

We’ve teamed up with our close friend Dr. Wally Wallace at The Saxophone Academy—renowned for his deep expertise in the saxophone and saxophone education—to create an instrument that delivers outstanding performance at an accessible price.

Performance and Value

We designed the Academy Model 660 with one goal in mind: performance. All the hallmarks of a professional instrument combined in an incredibly affordable package.

Purity of Sound

Premium brass and minimal ribbing give the Academy Model 660 a deep, clear core with an uncanny response. The sound profile is balanced and remarkably flexible. From Bach to Bebop, the 660 is the perfect companion in developing YOUR sound concept.

Fast. Very Fast.

Blued steel needle springs and intuitive ergonomics allow for an incredibly comfortable playing experience. The action is snappy, quick, and highly satisfying. World class technique is within the reach of your metronome (and practice).

Projection in Tune

Overtones, Altissimo, and soaring over any ensemble with ease. The 660 neck combines incredible resonance while keeping the octaves well in tune. Spend more time shaping phrases and less time fighting inferior acoustics.

A Touch of Elegance

The flowering dogwood, North Carolina’s state flower, was a natural choice for the Academy Model’s bell engraving—a nod to The Saxophone Academy’s home. A quiet but striking detail, it adds to the instrument’s timeless aesthetic.
