When I first saw this Hohner Saxonett by Jupiter on eBay in September 2019, I really didn’t know what I was looking at. The term Saxonett is almost the same as the one Hohner had used briefly circa 100 years ago, to describe their saxophone-shaped blow accordion<\/a>. Note that on the blow accordion there was an “e” on end of Saxonette. It should be also be noted that Hohner soon switched the instrument’s name to The Hohner Sax<\/a>. (Likely so that it wouldn’t be confused with a clarinet-like instrument of the same name.)<\/p>\n

Regardless of the name, the modern Saxonett bears no resemblance to Hohner’s blow accordion of 100 years ago. This Jupiter-made instrument is made of wood and looks like a recorder, but it has was looks like clarinet mouthpiece. <\/p>\n

The Saxonett on eBay was clearly missing its bell. That didn’t stop someone from buying it however. I guess they buyer saw the 79\u20ac price for a new one, and thought they were getting a bargain. <\/p>\n
