Cannonball was created in 1996 by Tevis and Sheryl Laukat, both saxophonists and vintage saxophone connoisseurs. The idea came about while doing experimental acoustic research on instruments they had available. The results convinced them to offer instruments that differed from those available. Today Cannonball not only has two exclusive factories in Taiwan, but also owns a warehouse and finishing houses in the in Utah (USA), by Salt Lake City. This is where the instruments are assembled, engraved, checked, tested and tuned. The Big Bell series was created in 2001 and aims to recapture the wide, warm sound of vintage American instruments.

This Cannonball tenor saxophone (T5-HS) Big Bell Stone HS, created by Cannonball, enhances the ability to produce a wide range of dynamics for a deep sound and a tone that allows access to a broad palette of sound colors. The increased size allows for a big, warm sound with powerful volume. It features particularly refined finishes and comes with two necks, the second being a FAT Neck model with the octave tube located on the bottom. This produces an effect that accentuates the mids and lows. The ease of play is impressive and more than compensates for the loss of comfort due to the instrument's size.
