The P. Mauriat Black Pearl series saxophones are premiere, artist-level instruments that deliver immense tonal possibilities, yet also possess unparalleled aesthetic refinement. The large bore taper, combined with the enlarged bow and flared bell, enable resistance-free low notes and an omni-directional sound, while the black nickel body plating helps deliver a dark, focused, and silky sound. Featuring ergonomically designed left and right pinky tables, easy access side keys, extremely stable silver plated keywork with black pearl key touches, and ribbed construction, this saxophone has unlimited possibilities.
