Ĭonsidering that I was getting nothing new when Googling "Luxor Van Hall," I took a look at the two LVH horns I have pictures of. Therefore, in your Modell list, above, you need a new entry. Keilwerth.Ĭlick to expand.I did forget, actually. They're the horns made by Amati for Gerhard J. You could include the H Couf and Conn DJH Modified stencils in this category. Series 6: Right bell keys, sheetmetal keyguards. Series 4B: Right bell keys, bevelled toneholes. Series 4: Left bell keys, bevelled toneholes. Series 2B: Right bell keys, sheetmetal keyguards.ĮDIT: Series 3: Right bell keys, funky side keys, wire keyguards.ĮDIT: Series 3B: Right bell keys, funky side keys, sheet metal keyguards.

I want to concentrate on just separating based on features. While I am interested in knowing about the Modell levels, I'm not concerned with that too much, at the moment. Īfter approximately 1947, the Special and Exklusiv models were available on some New King and Toneking horns.Īt some point, it looks like the Modell L became the Modell V, based on this horn.
It would be nice to see what we're all using on these great mid-century, German classics.Click to expand. (Like American horn makers used in their stencil horns.) There generally were no key work differences, nor were they cheaper copies of older models. The only difference was in the engraving. JK stencil horns were the same as their brand-name counterparts. (I ran out of poll options, since we're only allowed 10 per poll.) Stencils count here as well, I just couldn't add a category for them in the poll. (I'm talking tenors here.) Depending on the mood I'm in, I'll often take my JK to a show, and leave my VI behind. The Keilwerth is a killer horn in its own right, and can very easily hold its own against my Mark VI. Sure, our horns might not be as popular as the Mark VI, but as an owner of both a killer VI, and a 1957 Toneking, I can honestly say that the JK does not play 2nd fiddle to the Selmer. :bluewink:Īnyway, as the title says, all you vintage JK Toneking & The New King saxophone players, it's time we stood up and get counted.
Somehow I don't expect this one to get quite as many responses. It's been nearly 6 years since I started the Mark VI owner's club thread, and it's proven to be incredibly popular.
