Theo Wanne MANTRA Curved Neck Soprano Saxophone - One Piece - Vintified

£2,799.00
Description

This high-end soprano sax delivers a professional standard of tone, ergonomics and design. The full-bodied and rich tone will appeal to jazz, pop, soul and R&B players. The legendary Courtney Pine, among many others, has switched to the MANTRA.

The MANTRA saxophone sounds full, fat and round, more like alto and tenor saxophones. It has incredible atlissimo, and integrates many new innovations and features including new ergonomics, ‘boundary-layer-effect’ interior (similar to a shark’s skin which allows it to glide better through water), Theo’s angled three-ring-strap-hook, improved bore shape, advanced key adjustments, and Theo’s new proprietary nozzle!

Press Review

“The MANTRA is a new chapter in Soprano Saxophone History. You must try the new Theo Wanne Mantra soprano, it will take your playing to another higher level. I effortlessly get a full five octaves.” – Courtney Pine (Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE), and Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE))

Reviews

"It feels like the ergonomics of this sax have been well R&D’d. The action is comfortable and smooth and the keywork sits nicely in the right place. Like a lot of Theo’s mouthpieces there is a definite emphasis on ‘core’ within the tone of his soprano; very clearly defined and bold in sound, this definition and focus draws out a soloistic feeling when you play the Mantra, making this horn great for playing lead parts.

I should also say that this Vintified finish looks stunning set against the gold lacquer keywork, finished beautifully with a very arty engraving on the bell! - Jim (Sax.co.uk)
