SAXELLOS ARE HERE! BARIS AND CAT 5'S ON THE WAY


We got a big load of our Saxgourmet Saxellos today. This is a fantastic horn, with two solid silver necks and a VERY uniquely shaped solid silver bell and bow. Key work is to high G, the pads are black kangaroo leather Saxgourmet's by MusicMedic, the resonators are solid brass, the key touches are abalone, and the engraving has to be seen to be believed. This is absolutely the finest soprano available on the planet, and is the cutting edge of soprano design.

The next load of Category Five tenors should be here around Thursday of next week. The last load sold out completely in less than two weeks. As soon as the shipment clears customs, we'll set the up and deliver the ones that are on order.

At last, the baritones are in transit. Since they're coming via sea (it doesn't make a lot of economic sense to air freight baris) I can't give you an exact delivery date, but they should make it to the Big Easy in a couple of weeks. Most of this load of 25 baris are already sold, but there are three currently available.

In early September, we'll have a big load of Super 400 alto and tenor (a dozen each) and a bunch of Saxgourmet curved sopranos. These might make it by the end of this month, but I'd be rather surprised.

The new mouthpiece models should clear customs early next week, and we;ll get right on facing some up for sale.
