ABOUT

Dedication to the craft

Craig Ferguson has built a strong reputation for his work, supporting a wide range of professional musicians including Graeme Blevins (RAYE, Kylie Minogue), James Mollison (Ezra Collective), Naomi Sullivan (Professor at Royal Northern College), Kyle Horch (Professor at Royal College) and Andy McKay (Roxy Music), as well as many students and dedicated players.

Craig began his repair journey with Kent Music, where he was part of the music resources team. This role gave him a strong foundation in repairing woodwind, brass, and string instruments. Keen to develop his skills further, he later joined Sax.co.uk, working on instruments both old and new under the guidance of head technician Amy Pilcher. After several successful years with the team, Craig took the opportunity to lead saxophone servicing and repairs at Howarth of London.

Craig has also continued to refine his craft through specialist training, including the Trevor Head Woodwind course, and by learning from respected technicians such as Daniel Bangham, Anton Bourdillon, Neil Clark, and Paul Charman.

As a musician himself, Craig understands how important it is for an instrument to feel right. His focus is simple: to help you get the best possible sound and control from your instrument. With a friendly, straightforward approach, he offers honest advice and ensures you feel confident and comfortable every step of the way.

Now based in Bournemouth, Dorset. Craig is able to carry out the same high class repairs and servicing from his workshop.
