\"B&S<\/a>In 2017, I received an email from a fellow in Oslo, Norway. Petter used to own a music store and had been a VMI\/B&S dealer. While sorting through his attic he happened across a dealer prospectus<\/a> and brochure<\/a> for the Medusa saxophones.<\/p>\n

Then in 2020, he contacted me again letting me know he happened to find a number of other B&S materials. He was kind enough to once again send them my way. If you look at the Codera<\/a>, Guardala<\/a>, and 2001<\/a> sections of this VMI section you will find the additional materials Petter sent me. The dates of these printed materials range from 1992-1998. <\/p>\n

Additionally, Petter also found this brochure from 1999, which illustrates all the models that B&S was making at the time.<\/p>\n

Regardless if you already own a B&S horn and are looking for more info on it, or if you are merely doing research on a used sax you are considering, we all owe our sax-friendly colleague in Oslo a serious “Thank You”, for generously sending all this information to me. The fact that I got it, meant that it could be shared with the sax-playing world.<\/p>\n

Thank you Petter! Your generosity is greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n
