King

SUMMARY: The famous King Saxello was introduced in 1924-25 and had a half-turned bell with curved top. Other manufacturers have made tipped bell saxophones, but the Saxello is distinguished largely by its 90-degree angle. Patent 1605101 for the Saxello was granted on November 2, 1926. The goal of the Saxello was to achieve the clarity of tone of the straight soprano saxophone while making the soprano comfortable for long hours of playing.
