I recently received a Tenor Saxophone from my dad which he bought years ago but never played. I brought it to my music teacher who came back and told me 'I had no idea what I've got here'. He then went on to explain that I had what was nicknamed a 'French King' Tenor Sax from the 1920's, given the nickname by the players of the day because it was the first French saxophone with American fingering.
It is currently at a repair-shop so whilst it was there i was wondering if anybody had any information on 'French King' saxophones?
