This Cannonball Gerald Albright Signature Series alto sax feels like it received a complete overhaul from Ken Beason because it DID receive a complete overhaul from Ken Beason! This alto needs nothing. Cannonball lovers will not be disappointed.
This model features a Silver-Plated Body + Body Keys with a Black-Nickel Bow, Bell and Bell Keys. A beauty! It also includes two necks - one standard and one underslung. The pads appear to be black kangaroo pads.
Note that the stone on the front of the underslung neck is missing. We're waiting to hear back from Cannonball for a replacement, but the stone likely won't be included if this sax sells quickly. The price reflects the missing stone and will go up a bit when we receive the replacement.
This is one of Cannonball's Big Bell Stone series saxes. From their website:
"In collaboration with Gerald Albright, we designed the elaborate hand engraving that adorns each saxophone with a strikingly elegant look. Gerald chose the stone type, the black Italian pads, and the select finishes that perfectly complete the purpose of these saxophones: to embody the bold, soulful sound performed no better than by the master, Gerald Albright himself."
The best way to see, feel and hear how great this alto performs is to stop by and try it out. Additional photos are available on request.
