In any event, I'm just wondering if anyone had any firsthand knowledge, or paperwork hidden away in a filing cabinet or sax case, that might explain things a bit. Couf Baritone Sax has received recent major service and is a NICE Player. The keywork is comfortable, and the horn has good intonation.
I thought it might be interesting for some of you. The Couf bari has a big, warm tone and sounds better than most other vintage baris out there. I recently posted a review of the Superba I on my website. This would have been a custom order from JK, and given that the differences between the I and II were not all that significant in the baris, perhaps they only offered that finish in their II models. I still owned my Buescher when I play-tested the Couf, but I was so impressed with the JK-made bass, that I did finally decide to sell the bass to one of the people who had been in contact with me about wanting to buy a bass sax. In my personal opinion, these horns can hold their own against any sax produced at that time or since. If you keep it, you should make sure its in good playing condition and see to it that it gets played. It is black nickel plate, with gold plated keys. Couf Superba I is a fantastic top-of-the-line sax made by Keilwerth from the 1960s until the late 70s or early 80s. The finish on the horn is very unusual, so that might explain a lot as well. However, I must admit, my knowledge of H. Given that JK numbered all their horns sequentially, to the best of my knowledge, I thought the IIs were a much later model. under this name from approximately 1965 until 1988. Armstrong Company, imported three models of Keilwerth saxophones to the United States they were stenciled (engraved) with the model name H. Herbert Couf, for many years the vice president of the W.
#COUF BARITONE SAX SERIAL#
I'm looking at a Superba II bari with a serial # of 61XXX, which would put its production date at 1968-at least according to the JK serial # chart. Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor. Couf lover living or lurking amongst us, who have some knowledge about when the Superba II baris came out.
