The ultimate sax for a powerful vintage tone finished in a stunning cognac lacquer

A true modern classic - the 66R inspired a generation of vintage-style horns and now it's available in a beautiful cognac finish. A huge, dark tone makes this a superb horn for jazz, blues, and electric styles. It features drawn & rolled tone holes allowing better resonance and an enlarged bell to compliment an already warm, fat sound.

Description

The Mauriat 66R made an enormous impression when it exploded onto the sax scene a few years ago - from some of the greatest players down, saxophonists immediately fell for its dramatic but versatile character. It elevated P.Mauriat to sit alongside the World's best sax makers. Described in reviews as the closest to the legendary Selmer Mk6 - praise indeed! This Custom Class "Vintage Series" tenor features a cognac finish, rolled tone holes, beautiful abalone shell key touches and high F# key. The larger bell and lack of lacquer further encourage a full-bodied, powerful tone. It is rare to find rolled tone holes on a modern sax and these give a noticeably quieter key action and extended pad life.

Reviews

"After having the opportunity of playing for a long time on two excellent P Mauriat Saxophones:  Alto: PMXA-67R CL and Tenor: PMXT-66R CL, I can certainly say that they are instruments of first class in every way. Very good colour of sound, powerful sound and intonation, excellent response from the keys and sound when play, adjusted and levelled mechanism, ergonomic and beautiful finish....I highly recommend the P. Mauriat Saxophones for all saxophonists"
