Nexus One Tenor Saxophone

First, Jack and Chad wanted to do what no new saxophone company had yet to accomplish: make a new horn as light and vibrant as a vintage Mark VI. A tall order, Jack designed a saxophone that stripped back to the bare essentials, adjusting meticulously to balance the sound, response and intonation throughout the full range. 

Then, Jack and Chad worked to refine the ergonomics and action of the saxophone to allow for limitless fluidity in response and technique. Perfecting the response and height of each key involved extensive play-testing and adjustments. The Nexus One model was finalized after over a year of playing and revising the saxophone to ensure the perfect feel from top to bottom. 

The double silver plated neck features a heightened angle to reduce resistance while maintaining control and pitch. The end ferrule on the neck has a unique flange that increases brilliance and speeds up airflow from the mouthpiece and neck connection. Projection is increased further by eliminating the neck bracing and widening the angle of the flange at the end of the neck.
