Mauriat examined the construction techniques used to produce sought-after vintage instruments, leading to a significant performance-enhancing upgrade. The System 76 features an oversized bell, which, like the body and neck, is hand hammered by P. Mauriat’s expert craftspeople. Together with the instrument’s enlarged bore, the larger bell provides impactful bass tones and allows the sound to bloom, while opening up the horn’s overall tonality. Plus, the bell features graceful hand engraving with a delicate floral design that accentuates the instrument’s natural beauty and evokes P. Mauriat’s tradition of old-world craftsmanship.Super VI neck: free-blowing design with wide bore taper P. Mauriat outfitted the System 76 tenor saxophone with their Super VI neck — a favorite among experienced and professional saxophonists. The Super VI’s wider bore taper delivers a big, broad, bright tone and a responsive feel. With its free-blowing design, the Super VI gives you total control over the dynamics and timbral variation of your System 76. Growling, raspy, breathy, or sweet — the Super VI neck allows you to explore the full voice of your instrument, and you can push it as hard as you want with the confidence you’ll be rewarded with a commanding sound.Instruments that exude timeless character The French brass and other metals used in P. Mauriat saxes are remarkably resonant due to the company’s arduous hand-hammering process, in which a saxophone body is hammered up to 400 times before moving on to the next artisan for final shaping. Tone holes are drawn from an instrument individually to ensure the precision and uniformity necessary for superior response and intonation. At P. Mauriat, lacquer is applied in three separate layers in order to achieve timeless, vintage visuals that will stand the test of time. Beautiful hand engraving is artfully performed with a simple hand tool and years of expertise. Once finished, each P. Mauriat saxophone is meticulously inspected and tested by one of the company’s roster of quality-control artists to make certain you receive a perfect instrument that will go the distance in your career.Handcrafted vintage-inspired modern saxophones An industry leader in vintage-inspired modern saxophones, P.
