Up for sale is a VERY unique instrument, possibly the only of its kind in the world. The only other orenophone I know of is in Eb and is owned by Oren Marshall. This tenor orenophone was made for me by J.c. Sherman, and boy did he do a good job! I have used this horn primarily for TubaChristmasses and jazz projects and it's been a hit. For those unfamiliar, orenophones are brass instruments shaped like saxophones. This one is roughly the size and shape of a baritone sax.
The instrument sounds just like a normal euphonium, and has a more open sound than most. Intonation is great. Plating on the valves and compression are both great as well. The instrument is dent free except for a small dent in the leadpipe from setting it down wrong.
Because of the size I would prefer a local sale, and I am willing to drive a reasonable distance from Cleveland to meet a buyer. I can ship at buyer's expense if you're too far, though. Please feel free to shoot me a reasonable offer if you're interested! Included is the sax strap which makes it very comfortable to play sitting or standing.
I'm asking $1,499 for this, but please shoot me an offer if you think I priced this wrong. Email me at tylerferris1213@gmail.com for pictures and more information. Trust me, you want to see what this horn looks like!
SOLD: Bb Tenor Orenophone (Euphonium)
