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.

This Cannonball (S5-BR) Big Bell Stone Brass Aged Patina soprano saxophone enhances the ability to create a wide range of dynamics for a deep sound and a tone that allows access to a wide range of tonal colors. Despite its sporano range, it delivers a big, warm sound. It has a particularly refined finish, and comes with two jars, one straight and one curved, allowing for great accuracy and powerful projection. The appointements and the Aged Patina finish are superb, and make this saxophone a beautiful piece even before you hear it ring.
