In 2000, Ray Turner from Kelowna, British Columbia, bought a C. Jeuffroy alto sax in a music store in Victoria, British Columbia. I’m wondering if this sax was lacquered after the fact, because this is the only lacquered Pierret of this vintage I’ve ever seen.<\/p>\n

Stephen Doyle, formerly from Winnipeg, Manitoba, found a C. Jeuffroy alto sax identical to mine in a music store in Winnipeg in the summer of 2005. The store wanted about $380 for the horn, which needed an overhaul, and was missing a key. He decided to pass on the horn.<\/p>\n

In an odd coincidence, I\u00a0received an email from the Whyte Ridge Music Centre in Winnipeg in March, 2009. The owner explained that the Pierret saxophone, complete with its missing front F key, was stolen from his store, along with a number of high-priced instruments.<\/p>\n

I wrote a weblog article about the theft<\/a>, in hopes of getting the word out. To my knowledge, this horn has never been recovered.<\/p>\n
