Developed exclusively with acclaimed saxophonist Bob Mintzer, Eastman’s design team has pushed the 52nd Street baritone saxophone to a new standard of precision, elegance and sound. With Bob’s insight into professional playing preferences, Eastman was able to create the horn Bob dreamed of. The 52nd Street baritone saxophone is a professional instrument and comes unlacquered for a truly vintage appearance. It is an exceptionally responsive horn in all registers and produces a big, fat sound with precise intonation. A larger bell and rolled-style tone holes contribute to the sound qualities of this instrument that many compare to some of the great vintage horns of the past.
