Looking at the Cannonball website it looks like the company goes through it's dealers for everything. I recently acquired a stone series alto (A5-BIce) that I...
Since you bought used, an official Cannonball dealer is basically irrelevant, IMHO. No CB dealer is under any obligation to fix your horn free. A CB dealer...
Hi all, Not a big deal, but I managed to get both of my Ravens ( bari and tenor) on you tube at the same time.. Okay.. i cheated, I let someone else play the...
you see I wanted to know if they could make a horn some what like the raven but instead of black nickel keys they could use Gold ones. like lets see I want a...
I'll admit, I listen to classical, legit sax about as often as I do Slim Whitman (which is to say, not at all). But for the genre, I thought that sounded very...
Yes, thanks for sharing!........the bari had a nice "pop" to it! I will send you guys my band's "myspace site".......but I can't remember it off hand......we...
Go to: www.myspace.com/directenergyband. Sorry, you'll have to copy and paste to browser.........don't know why the site didn't stay "high-lited"......We...
Hello all, Buying a used cannonball always seems like a grass root's effort as they don't sell online. I won't pay the mark-up price they offer here in the VA...
it's just below your bottom right hand palm keys (the three keys for a#, alternative c, and high F) to finger high f# use all three Left hand palm keys, the...
It would help if you would state what your budget is for the tenor. Also, whether a silver or a black finish is what you have in mind, the selling price would...
Oh no worries, I got a second chance offer for one I had lost earlier this month. After verifying the offer I went ahead and bought it. It's a Raven. Got...
I also admire the Cannonball instruments. I have played the Lacquer Alto Stone series and the Mad Meg Tenor at our local dealer (nearly 100 miles away). I...
I'm primarily a bari sax player and while I've never played a Yamaha baritone sax yet, I have played their alto and tenor pro models side- by-side with my...
Jack I heartily agree. All during my Navy Music career I played a Yamaha Custom 885 and a Selmer MK VI tenor (141,000) and have since sold them both to buy a...
I have to wonder whether you could still get the Yamaha 62-II for the Cannonball price if Cannonball wasn't out there competing in the marketplace at that...
Wow! Great analogy James! I've already said my piece on the CB vs. other horns. I too have played professionally for many many years, and when I play tested...
I have to agree as I had the same experience.I got a demo Yamaha Custom 875 only 30 days old for $50 less than a newCannonball tenor. The Cannonball was my...
Wow. I suspect that dealer marks up the CB tenors a LOT if the two prices were similar, demo status notwithstanding. My local dealer only charges about $2k...
Are the two nwcks in the Global Series the same, just with different finishes? I have the A1-B Ice B (the raven) and the black ice neck is much more free...
Since we are into price,I live in North Carolina and the Cannonball Dealer price was $2075 on the tenor. The Yamaha dealer sold me the Custom 875 for $1975...
Double wow. Back in the mid-90s, before I went back to school to get a decent day job, I worked in a music store. I LOVED the Yamaha customs and sold several....
Hello, I need some good opinions... I have a chance to get an alto Cannonball...I played the mad mag today and liked it...however...I already have a black...
Brenda...........you're looking at spending a lot of money.......I would find a dealer who has one and make a "day-trip" to go try it out! Don't have a clue...
Here you go. I own the Iced black nickel, the raven. I almost never tried it. I tried first the black nickel, then the mad meg. I thought the mad meg was...
According to the CB site, the iced (sandblasted) finish is not as dark. I bought the black nickel because I liked dark, but it was maybe a little too dark....
Hey Jim, Glad to hear you echo the sentiments. The day I drove 2 hours (one way)to play test might pale in comparison to someone who has to travel 4 or 5...
Thanks everyone! I am so frustrated. I took that 2 plus hour trip to SA in Columbus on Sunday after I read your post. What a waste of my day. I found the...
Brenda, So sorry to hear of your (really) bad experience at Sam Ash. I have never had anything but the best of service there. My guess is was that the staff...
I hate to do this, I can't believe I am going to say this, but, but , but the Sam Ash in Richmond had very good customer service. There I said it. I would...
