Fraser`s SAXOPHONE Blog. 416 994 7110
NEW ARRIVAL !
Curious and happy to receive a new to me Kohlert Tenor sax, made about 1959. These are powerful horns with rolled toneholes great for rock and roll since the sound cuts through the other instruments. I had one of these before that was not very good condition but was fantastic to play -- so much fun with its great tone and versatility. This one is much better with a good finish and new pads. Lucky will be the owner of this one ! The previous one belongs to a client who is a pro with a MKVI that I overhauled but he much prefers the Kohlert on his gigs (also overhauled by me) -- they are just that good !!Ready for sale, ready for gig !

Made in Japan. Vito engraved on bell so a little cheaper than Yamaha on bell but exactly the same horn, in fact better than the newer ones of this decade. These were made in the 1970`s. All new pads and overhauled to play very well. You can play this one very softly -- you can breath through it !
No damage on bow, that is rare !
Notice the finish, good lacquer
