Posted : admin On 11.08.2019Evette Schaeffer Serial Numbers Saxophone Music. Author: admin 01/11. EvetteSchaeffer Alto Sax Made in France Serial Number 14302 circa 1967 This horn was made by Malerne as evidenced by the LH pinky table, low C spatula and tulip. If anyone wants to know the years their saxophones were mad please give me your serial numbers and user names. I am looking for any information for my Saxophone. Unfortunately Evette Schaeffer seems to have a pretty 'unstable' history. My whole day of googling and research yesterday didn't bring me further. Can anybody tell me anything about this SAX? Year of Manufacturing? I am looking forward to listing this instrument at ebay.

Evette Schaeffer Saxophone Serial Numbers
Buku metode penelitian pendidikan karangan sugiyono pdf to jpg download. In 1918, according to the Boosey website, Buffet started selling horns under their own name in the US. These are probably those horns. They seem to be identical to the early Evette & Schaeffer horns (sometimes even including the additional keywork of the patented Evette & Schaeffer System horns) -- the only differences are different engraving, pearl keywork and a completely oddball serial number chart.that starts at either 1 or 100.
In any event, around 1933 the Buffet-Powell horns were introduced and they seem to follow the original Evette & Schaeffer serial number charts. It seems these Buffet models were discontinued and the Evette morphed into a student model (and has remained as such). A lot of post-1933 Evette horns were not made by Buffet and were very low quality.
The superb silver-plate bass pictured here (from Wichita Band Instruments and sold on eBay) has an Evette & Schaeffer serial number, not one of the 'oddball' ones I mention. The explanations:
- The Buffet bass and contrabass were custom instruments. It's definitely possible that some US company special-ordered one and Buffet just slapped an Evette & Schaeffer serial number on it.
- Buffet quite probably did exactly what most other manufacturers did with all but the most popular saxophones, the alto and tenor: if you want an odd pitch, they'd break out the old tooling. If demand got high enough, they'd release the horn in the newer model.
- You might think this bass is nickel plate, it's so shiny. It's not. Buffet used to like to advertise that they had 'the heaviest quadruple silverplate'. It's really the truth. My wife's 1915-ish curved soprano is as bright as a newly minted quarter, but has obvious silver tarnish.
Hi, have an old Evette Schaeffer Alto Sax Model # 7798 Brass in color. On the bell hsg is logo Evette over the word Schaeffer. Under Schaeffer is Paris over the word France surrounded by a leafy & Crown design. All the research I've done says 1st Buffet started company in 1866 then Crampon came on board to form Buffet Crampon Co. in 1871. Evette Schaeffer bought out Buffet Crampon in 1885 getting their own patent in 1867 starting with serial # 7xxx where Buffet Crampon left off. E/S went to serial # 29424 in 1927. My serial #fits in that period. Then I found nothing till 1952 where Buffet Crampon has Serial #'s 2925 thru 35733 in 1985 which my serial # 7798 would fall in 1961
My questions did Evette Schaeffer use their logo till 1927? How did Buffet Crampon come back in the picture? Who's logo did they use? Of all the pictures I found on the internet & E-bay, & while some I found are close to my serial #, none seem to match the log Evette Schaeffer Paris France Logo that I have. How do I prove which set of serial#'s am I looking at are for me?
