This special 30th-anniversary edition features a stunning Sapphire Blue finish with a fully hand-engraved ‘Grand Galaxy’ design, which is more intricate than the standard engravings.
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.
The A5 model, the inaugural entry in the Big Bell series, represents Cannonball's most conventional saxophone. Ideal for enthusiasts across the spectrum, from beginners to seasoned players, as well as professionals seeking a saxophone distinctly oriented towards modern music. The expansive and warm sound characteristic of the Big Bell series is distinctive and elicits an undeniable response.
