Am I the only one that felt really nervous when you had this glorious musical treasure teetering on your lap, not even strapped on? 😱 I’m all in with Yani’s, having sold my one-owner 1964 Mark VI alto to buy a new Elite during Covid. Never looked back! 😃🎷
Just dropped in to see your video and at 0:13 I was stunned. Stopped cold and stared at the shop. Wow. My first bari was a high school torture instrument (silver of sorts) and I had to learn how to get each note to be in tune. Such as, the octave key did not even work. Bought my own within a year. In '72 I got into an additional band that had a Selmer Mk VI (I believe??) and for the first time I really experienced an instrument that did what I wanted to do, without having to fight it. I could hardly play it as it was so hard to believe I was able to use it. Once I got over the emotions, it was magical. Dusting off the one I have and time to get back into the better things in life.
Superb instrument, no question about it... I am very curious to know the weight of this baritone given the high density of silver, compared to the "usual" 5.6 kg of my SELMER Mk VI. I did not find this important practical info anywhere. Thanks for the review.
Great video no matter what some people say! It would be interesting for me to understand the sound difference based on the material and physically there should be none?
the added weight contributes resonance, but this would be just as true with thicker brass or any other material. there is nothing magic about silver. in my view gold plating is worth extra money because it is much easier to maintain than silver, and it has the high resale value that helps it be worth the price.
I have a long story to make you jealous of my stupid good luck. I've bought a couple of great horns I didn't know enough to appreciate, from people who didn't know what they had! About 40 years ago I had a Borgani curved soprano that was super cute, but not easy to keep in pitch breaking registers. Audiences liked it and it was the only curved soprano I had ever seen. But I was tired of playing it after I lucked into a 98 thousand series Mark VI tenor, cheap. I thought about trading it in and wandered into a small store (Mel Bay in Kirkwood, MO.) They had a barely used King Tempo Low-A Baritone that I guessed was a mid to low level pro horn. I had never played one, but they let me play it and I couldn't believe how easy it was and strong and perfectly it played. Okay, so maybe it was just a mid level horn at best, so I traded my Borgani for which I paid $700 (they were so excited to see it!) Even trade. I played the bari a lot! Way more useful than the soprano for the Funkier stuff I was playing and writing. Then one night my wife packed my horns for me after a show. I don't know where she put that little bari neck, but I couldn't find it the next time I looked. I heard about a guy who travels the country hunting down saxophone parts and vintage stuff. I called him about getting a neck. He asked me to describe the bari cuz there were some different makers for the King Tempo. Who knew? He said he wanted to see it, and that he would bring me a neck (for $250!) He saw it and my Tenor. He said my Tenor was one of the most sought after tenors and that my bari was actually made by Couf as an experimental model stencil (meaning no engraving or branding) made for Keilworth who had contracted with King to make horns when King couldn't meet their orders. I'm glad King contracted better horn makers cuz what I lucked into is supposed to be a highly sought after horn, way better than the mid-level model I thought it was. The vintage horn guy said it was one of the best Baris ever made, about a 1965 vintage. He played it and said it was perfect. Of course the non-original $250 neck I bought from him would lower the resale value, but then - luck again, the original neck showed up in a gig bag. I've tried several mouthpieces and the one I like best is this Rico, cheap plastic modern wonder - - th-cam.com/video/Lw0WrWvNoeY/w-d-xo.html
If I add YANAGISAWA YNBW3 SOLID SILVER BARITONE SAX NECK to my BWO20, may be I'll be half-way there; missing only the solid silver body and silver plating of the bronze bow/bell but with way less cleaning to do.
Also the late Hamiet Bluiett used to play on a Selmer balanced action low A baritone during the 70s and 80s. It was gold plated. He should have never traded it in for the silver conn baritone
Absolutely stunning baritone !!!! What a marvellous sound too ….. I did have a Bari for a while and it was a good one but this just takes it to a whole new level !! WOW WOW WOW !!!! 🎼🎵🎷🎷🎶🎶😎😎🎷🎷😎😎🐾🐾👏👏💥💥🎼🎵🎷🎷🎷🎶❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🏴🥃🥃❤️🙏🏼 PS If anyone out there would want to donate this to me just let me know, thanks ! 😜😜😜😜🔔🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@MARKLINMAN1 I agree that this bari is likely to depreciate with time. I would go with a B901 and a Tudor Black Bar 58 as you are less likely to be mugged wearing the latter.
Engraçado como as coisas fora do Brasil são baratas, aqui com 15k você compra um instrumento mais ou menos, chinês, os famosos instrumentos de aprendiz, lá fora, com 15k você compra o melhor do mercado, que aqui no Brasil é mais de 85k. E não vem me dizer de converter, eles ganham em dólar e gastam em dólar, muita das vezes eles ganham mais dólares do que nós ganhamos em nossa moeda. Lá eles não ganham 200, 500 dólares, ganham 1000-5000U$, igual no Brasil, a maioria ganha 1000-5000R$, o que muda é o poder de compra. Única coisa ruim relacionada ao dinheiro lá é que tudo relacionado à saúde é pago, bem caro inclusive.
I’m certain with proper set-up it will be a screaming bari. Unfortunately, the “test drive” sounds like the horn has leaks. Also, probably due to the player & mouthpiece - it is out of tune. But - I would love to try one!
Thanks for your constructive comments, Ken! George has only played bari a handful of times and we have a customer most likely purchasing this bari in a few days. We wanted to get something out there so we could show you all this beast of an instrument! We'll get the more experienced bari player, Jim up next time to show off our next bari! All the best
@@saxworldwide Poor George. I thought his playing was absolutely fine. Not sure what Ken is on about. Seems a shame to let someone with a passion for the instrument, who exudes it through the way he discusses the main specs of the sax afterwards, miss out because some guy online thinks he is some supreme sax connoisseur. I think George did a stellar job, and I'm probably not alone in this. If anything, have George and Jim both have a go with an instrument and have a conversation about it after. It's nice to get two perspectives too :)
This beauty won’t last long at the shop and will sell pretty fast, so enjoy her while she is there.
I am not a bari sax player myself, but I love the look of it, and the way it sounds. Just looking at it makes me want to do bari.
Go for it!
Hit me up ⤴️⤴️⤴️
amazon sells a $999.99 bari sax to low a, not a bad horn for the price, CHINA
bari sax player here. go for it if you want

Man, HUGE and resonant. Wow!
The specification WO30 BSB means it’s bronze bell with silver plating, while the rest of the main trunk is solid silver
Excellent review! That bari sounded amazing, resonant in all ranges of the instrument!

Hopefully I can come back into the shop soon and have another look around and it is always so much fun to watch these videos 🥰😄

Whats the name of the second song?❤
What reed did you use?
Thanks for showing us this instrument. It's a cracker.

White gloves would have helped give the Silver Bari more prestige, just saying.
What's Bobby's setup?
Hit me up ⤴️⤴️⤴️
This baritone or a submariner? Thats a hard choice.
I’d go with a Tudor Black Bay 58 and have a lot of money left over.
Submariner will appreciate in value over time, the bari will go the other way, keep that in mind.

The Conn-Selmer 380 is a much nicer horn ;-)

Hope to come to the store in the near future to check out some bad ass bari horns ☺️

Only 15,000? I've seen vintage horns for a lot more....not that they're getting what they ask for. I saw a SBA, low A bari for 23,000....
That is the most british thing to name a dog Bhobbay
Silver Yamaha Bari beats it.
HOLY S.......

Yep, just as I suspected. It sounds like a baritone sax..........
