Last night my tenors and I were the subject of an impromptu photo shoot. As I took a look through the shots, I found a few that were quite interesting, and some that were rather artistic. The following one of my D&J-stencilled DeVilliers is among my favourites.<\/p>\n

I happen to think that this mono-coloured D\u00f6rfler & J\u00f6rka is one of my prettiest saxophones, and one of the most photogenic. The real mother of pearl buttons on the key guards are a beautiful finishing touch. The unusual lacquer colour\u2014and no, it is not a relac\u2014adds to this horn’s overall mystique. It’s tone is quite remarkable as well.<\/p>\n

D&J certainly made an amazing tenor saxophone. These were of course clone horns of J. Keilwerth’s Tonekings and The New Kings, which is why Keilwerth went to court in an effort to try and get redress.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to read more about D&J, and the D&J\/J. Keilwerth history\u2014which is a long and complicated one\u2014check out the D\u00f6rfler & J\u00f6rka page <\/a>on the main portion of my site.<\/p>\n
