Congrats!!! I too have a BBSS Hot Spur Tenor and it really wails! I play in a 9-pc. horn-rock band, along side of two trumpets and another sax (Selmer...
Thanks for the info. I have been playing the horn for 3 days now and have enjoyed the sound. I compared it to my Yamaha YTS 62 and I am pretty certain that it...
The Superba One in good shape should have a market value greater than a new soprono! Sell it, buY a sop. and be ahead of the game. Contact www.worldwidesax.com...
When I play-tested the tenor, I tried about 5 different Cannonballs; a new Selmer Mark; a Yamaha Custom; a Yanigasawa; and I used my 70's model King Super-20...

Seems like a duplication of function to me. It's all still Cannonball saxes which is what I started this group for to begin with back in 2000. Why do we need...
I think Seth was implying that he doesn't want to "splinter off from the CB group"................he just doesn't want all the drooling, sloppering Hot Spur...
With three black-and-gold CBs- (Bari, tenor, soprano), I would qualify as a charter member of the black and gold "honeybee" club, but I wouldn't go there. So...
