It was nearly 10 years ago that I saw the very first Triumpf tenor saxophone<\/a>. The tenor had many of the hallmarks of a Julius Keilwerth-made horn, expect that it: 1. Didn’t have the JK logo<\/a> on the back, nor 2. According to the seller, did it have a serial number engraved below the thumb rest<\/a>\u2014 or anywhere else on the sax.  However, it did have many features we see in JK horns of the Graslitz era. <\/a><\/p>\n
