Founded by Steve Dillon, Dillon Music has been catering to
the world’s top professional brass and woodwind players for
well over twenty years. Dillon Music is known as one of the
top “pro shops” worldwide, consistently boasting the best
selection of both new and used professional and high-end

to schools and young musicians alike is a top priority for
Dillon Music. Dillon Music has worked hard to develop our
own line of student, intermediate, and entry-level professional
instruments, priced to accommodate any budget.

individual needs of our customers. The Dillon student
instruments are perfect for any beginner, and are amongst
the most affordable student instruments on the market. The
intermediate and “step-up” instruments are priced lower than
many of our competitor’s student-level instruments, and are
perfect for the advancing young musician. Our intermediate
and professional instruments are also perfect for the
professional or advanced player looking for a reliable double.
Every Dillon instrument is inspected and serviced by our
world-class repair department to ensure that they reflect
the quality and craftsmanship that the Dillon Music name
represents.
