bamboo saxophones
The best and most professional natural saxophones made in Argentina, using bamboo, gourds,
coconuts and horns.
From 1985 we developed and built this instrument, with equal attention to acoustic design and aesthetics. Carefully electronicaly tuned , and with maximum durability. Our saxes have a careful external finish. Their interior is protected
against changes of humidity, frequent in all wind instruments.
Bamboo saxophones consist of segments of bamboo successively larger in diameter. This progression, achieved by trial-and-error, has now been demonstrated by acoustical studies as the most harmonically effective.
The joints are extremely solid and resistant over time.
Our work with mouthpieces led us to use different bamboo types that
give the instrument its own and characteristic sound.
It uses conventional sax reeds, which can be acquired in any good musical store
in the world. They have keys that cover toneholes outside the reach of the fingers. This improves the acoustic design and the fingering
distribution.
The Bamboo sax is not an imitation of brass saxes, it is an instrument
in its own right.
