Trevor James Signature Custom Alto Saxophone - RAW Finish
Experience the next level of saxophone artistry with the Trevor James Signature Custom Alto Sax.
The award-winning Signature Custom saxophone has been developed following continuous cycles of research, improvement, testing and review with sax players around the world who wanted a genuine vintage sound. Unlike many other makers who simply apply a coloured finish to the instrument to give it the appearance of being old, Trevor James simply preserved the saxophone in its raw manufactured condition and added the mechanism to allow the instrument to resonate freely.
RAW Finish
The extraordinary ‘RAW’ model was born in 2012 and was designed for those seeking an authentic vintage sound and an instrument that exudes a beautifully aged aesthetic. The Trevor James Signature Custom RAW saxophones are finished in their raw brass, unlacquered and dip-cleaned state. When we say it’s RAW, we mean it!
The standard 'RAW' model showcases a distinct and captivating dark finish throughout.
