- “I've been having all my horns worked on by Perry Ritter for at least 15 years now, and I recommend him very strongly to any woodwind player looking to have their instrument play in top form. He's a great guy and he's hooked me up countless times, no matter how big or small the problem was. Check him out!” — Chris Potter "Perry Ritter has been my only saxophone repairman for a very long time" — Lenny Pickett "Perry has kept my instruments in top shape for many years. If you want yours gig ready, he's the man.” — Jimmy Heath “Perry Ritter has been my trusted repairman since 1987, as he is a true craftsman, and always fair and honest. Besides consistently delivering the highest quality repairs, I have purchased many of my horns from his shop. And, being located in New York City, his shop is renowned for meeting other legendary and not so legendary saxophonists on any given visit. If only his walls had ears!! Perry is the best!” — Dave Schroeder Saxophone, flute and clarinet NYU Jazz Studies, Director Combo Nuvo, Artistic Director
