While the name Arizona Woodwinds and Brass is new to the Phoenix valley, we are not new to the music business or Arizona! AWB is the sister ‘store’ to our very successful violin shop, Arizona fine Violins. In just 7 quick years, we have solidly established ourselves as the “Go To” stringinstrument rental center in Arizona for violins, violas, cellos and basses, we know the important value of also offering beginner band instruments: Quality brands and accessories, at rental plans and rates that similarly made our violin shop famous!

For the past 28 years (!) Steve has been a professional orchestra bass player. He presently holds the Assistant Principal Bass position with the Phoenix Symphony and before coming to Phoenix (in the 1990-'91 Season) he was Principal Bass with the Hong Kong Philharmonic. Steve, whom is self-admittedly 'bass crazy', is happy to talk and/or visit with anyone about basses!

Mei Lin's specialty comes from an incredibly unpredictable evolution of supply chain, world trade expertise to similar related world trade expert in musical instruments. Born and raised in Hong Kong, her extensive background first specialized in the garment business. After a lifelong love of linguistics, she speaks fluent Cantonese, Mandarin, English and after 4 semesters community college, her newest language in the works, Spanish. Everyone who calls us, refers to her as 'the nice one on the phone'!

With our family owned business, we understand the needs and importance of young school aged children to learn an instrument at school. We offer the best deals and rates, with the best quality instruments in the valley!
