"Fred always provides the highest quality repairs and overhauls. He tailors each repair to my personal references." - J. O'Flynn, Professor at Utah State University

"Being a traveling musician, I need my gear up to par not only for live venues, but also for studio work. Lighthouse Music was a clear choice for my Custom Yamaha Tenor. Not only was I invited into the shop as Fred walked through what he was going to do on my horn, but he also gave some advice on how to maintain the work that was being done." - T. Gauldin, Band Director and Professional Musician

"Fred's work is unbelievably precise and thorough; he doesn't miss anything! My horns have never played or sounded better!" - J. Whitmore, Professional Woodwind Musician

About Fred

Growing up in sunny Tucson, Arizona, I was always drawn to the world of music. My biggest influence was the band Chicago - a trumpet, trombone, and saxophone lead band that was the first of its kind. It inspired me to take up playing the clarinet and saxophone. Throughout my career, I've been fortunate to work with some of the best in the industry, from Charlie Unruh, the Selmer Company's first flute apprentice, to the owner of Desert Winds Music in Tempe, Arizona.

With over 45 years of experience in instrument repair, I've had the privilege of working with musicians from all walks of life. Whether you're a beginner or a professional, I'm committed to providing the highest level of service and expertise to ensure that your instrument is in top playing condition.
