Play test & purchase a wide range of brass instruments.
Our Location Contact ShowroomOur extensive showroom is based in Roselle, Chicago, just 22 minutes away from all terminals of O’Hare International Airport (ORD) and a short walk from Roselle train station, on METRA’s Milwaukee-West Line.
Our new Chicago showroom offers impassioned brass musicians of all ages and abilities the opportunity to playtest our substantial range of instruments both personally and privately.
The appointment only system enables individuals interested in trying out any of our instruments to do so both at a date and time convenient to them, whilst avoiding the ‘elephant room syndrome’ often found at conferences and festivals where large groups of people are playing multiple instruments at any one time, making concentration difficult.
By booking an appointment in advance, and particularly relevant for our more specialized instruments, we can guarantee that the instrument you desire to test is in stock and available.
Purchasing is available at the showroom, meaning that if you play test a horn you adore, you can take it away with you immediately.a
Accompaniments and recordings
Our state-of-the-art showroom features a bluetooth-enabled hybrid piano*, allowing you, not only the enjoyment and convenience of playing your own accompaniments and orchestral excerpts whilst play-testing our extensive range of instruments, but also the ability to record and playback your demonstrations.
*Please note that visitors wishing to take advantage of this feature are asked to bring their own bluetooth device.
Accommodation
For any visitors travelling at length to visit the showroom, we have arranged a special ‘corporate room-rate’ for all Wessex Tubas guests at the nearby Holiday Inn, Chicago-West (Itasca) which comes with a free, freshly-cooked breakfast menu.
What’s more, the hotel’s free shuttle can take you to and from our Showroom, which is 5 minutes from the hotel.
