The professional level Big Bell® Stone Series™ helps create a Big Bold Warm sound and
yet allows you to play with the most subtle nuances. Each Big Bell Stone Series saxophone comes standard
with two hand-customized necks. The first is the
original style neck, creating a traditional sound. The second is the FAT NECK® which has the octave
tube is on the under side of the neck, creating less resistance of air-flow, resulting in a FAT sound -
more lows, more mids, less highs. Visually, the Big Bell Stone Series combines medieval art with nature's
stunning beauty. Sixteen semi-precious stones form the deep earth adorn specially designed keys, necks and
lightweight guards. The combination of the stones, the hand-drawn design of the guards and
engravings, and the unique array of finishes make each saxophone an art piece in itself.
We designed the Big Bell® Stone Series™ Saxophones for you to be able to play without limits,
feeling each note vibrate in your hands.
