Unlike any other area, the saxon region
of Vogtland looks back on over a 100 years of tradition
in the development and manufacturing of wind instruments.
The first german saxophone was built in 1901 in Markneukirchen
, and by the 1920`s, Hüller saxophones were being
sold all over the world. During the times of the old
east Germany (GDR), the majority of the vogtl. Saxophone
manufactures were brought together to form the VEB
Blechblas- und Signal-Instrumenten-Fabrik. Today,
this tradition now lies in the hands of Vogtländische
Musikinstrumentenfabrik GmbH , who as well as establishing
the handcraft traditions, continue developing new
and innovative ideas together with leading saxophone
players and specialists from around the world , from
these developements came this fabulous range of Dave
Guardala Saxophones.Technically engineered and handcrafted
beyond the ordinary. These saxes achieve optimal response,
superior intonation and tonal richness across all
ranges. As a result they have found their way into
the hands of professional musicians worldwide. Their
popularity is due in part to their excellent acoustical
properties, ease of playing, flawless mechanical quality
and not forgetting their impeccable beauty , resulting
from decades of incomparable manufacturing processes,
meticulous workmanship, continuous research and development,
artist input, and the personal pride of each tradesman.
Dave Guardala saxes are reminiscent of horns produced
in an era when materials and craftsmanship were never
compromised and recapture that full American sound
of old, and create a better sound for tomorrow. |
