Bargain Price Hoss
This is a nice playing Saxquest Hoss 115 for baritone saxophone. We are offering it at a used price due to a few cosmetic blemishes it has from the manufacturing process. The pictures show some extra texture around the outer body, this is only cosmetic and the piece still plays as intended. 
 
The Hoss was developed in the spirit of one of the best playing 1950's vintage Berg Larsen duck bill hard rubber bari pieces we have ever come across. If you are looking for a fat robust sound with a warm center and plenty of carrying power you will love the HOSS. The Hoss was based off a 50's vintage Berg before they started notating the baffle number. But that being said I would say this one is comparable to a 0 or 1 baffle. 
 
The HOSS has a rather long body length and shows off a classic “duck bill” shape at the beak. The relaxed angle of the beak allows for comfort and flexibility and does not leave the player with an awkward feeling regarding their personal embouchure. The inside of the mouthpiece features a medium open throat, bullet chamber and a steady floor slope with just the slightest baffle shaping below the tip rail.
