Conn

Description

Blending legacy American design with modern engineering, the Conn CONNfirmation CAS811LTD150 Eb alto saxophone is built for players seeking a refined, expressive voice across jazz and commercial settings. As a professional Eb alto saxophone, it reflects Conn’s 150 years of instrument-making with a design rooted in innovation and craftsmanship. Constructed from Bach brass across the body, neck, bow and bell, this Conn alto saxophone is designed to maximize resonance, projection and tonal depth. A larger bore profile, precise tone hole placement and true rolled tone holes contribute to consistent response, stable intonation and a centered core throughout the range. Finished in heat-fused aged brass with Art Deco engraving, this jazz alto saxophone pairs traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design for demanding performance environments, whether leading a section or stepping forward for a solo.

Bach Brass Construction With Rolled Tone Hole Design

The use of Bach brass throughout the instrument provides a strong tonal foundation with enhanced resonance and projection. As a rolled tone holes saxophone, it supports a smooth, even response from low Bb to high F#, helping notes slot cleanly with a consistent feel under the fingers. Post-to-body construction reinforces stability and airflow consistency, giving the horn a balanced resistance that supports both control and flexibility. The result is a voice that stays centered at softer dynamics while opening up naturally when pushed.

ConnSonic Process and Optimized Bore Architecture

A complex taper and larger bore profile are engineered to support tonal efficiency and projection, while Conn’s proprietary ConnSonic process enhances responsiveness and harmonic complexity. Carefully positioned tone holes refine intonation across the scale, creating a free-blowing feel with quick response and clean articulation. This professional alto saxophone adapts easily between tight, focused phrasing and broader tonal spread, making it well suited for jazz, studio and commercial performance applications.

Limited-Edition Build With Professional Components

Structural elements such as the generative bell brace, oversized bow brace and tapered neck tenon contribute to stability and resonance, while refined keywork supports fluid movement during extended playing. Pisoni Pro pads and flat Conn metal resonators enhance articulation and note clarity, and the included Brilhart Ebolin mouthpiece provides a balanced starting point for tone development. Complete with a custom case, this pro alto sax with mouthpiece delivers a focused combination of heritage, precision and modern performance for players working across ensemble and solo settings.
