We’re going to SUBSTANTIALLY increase the amount of hand cut engraving on the next run of Super 400’s because Sharon and I believe that too much is ALWAYS better than not enough. The next run will also have the same “no stick” G# mechanism as was previously found only on the Keilwerth SX-90 (we’ve made arrangements with the holder of the patent on this system) and a few other minor tweaks. We try to improve the breed as we go along! Attached are some pictures of the new engraving pattern, taken before plating. We now expect the next load of Super 400 alto and tenors around September 1`5 or so. Most of this load is already sold! We’ve also got a load of the new Saxgourmet curved soprano (much improved over the previous Steve Goodson Model, which was a really nice playing horn) on the same shipment. We’ve only got two Saxellos left in stock (they sorta flew out of here!) and STILL have not received our baris, which are on the way but not here. The next load of Category Five horns (with the new improvements) should be here tomorrow or Monday. Our European distributor has just received a big load of Super 400’s, Voodoo Rex, Saxello, and the exclusive to Europe Derek Nash Model, so they will have horns out on the street very soon. We’ve got plenty of solid silver alto necks on hand, and are expecting a load of the re-designed solid copper tenor neck in around two weeks. The new Black Mambo, Yellow Moon, Voodoo Child, and Super Duck mouthpiece models should be ready by the end of next week. I’ve got a lot of mouthpiece facing to do!
