P. Mauriat Le Bravo Tenor Saxophone – Gold Brass Matte Body

P. Mauriat’s Le Bravo Tenor Sax

The P. Mauriat Le Bravo 200T intermediate tenor saxophone employs a unique alchemy to achieve its inimitable sound. Finely crafted with a warm, resonant gold brass body and a powerful nickel silver Super VI neck, the Le Bravo delivers thick, robust tone with serious punch. Saxophonists love the Le Bravo for its easy playability, great intonation, and fat, punchy sound; band directors love it for its rock-solid construction, which keeps it in the classroom and not in the shop. The P. Mauriat Le Bravo 200T offers solid quality, performance, and value in an intermediate tenor saxophone. If you’re a tenor player ready to take the next step in your development as a saxophonist, it’s an excellent choice.

Nickel silver Super VI for serious punch

P. Mauriat outfitted the Le Bravo 200T tenor with the nickel silver version of their Super VI neck — a favorite among experienced and professional saxophonists. The Super VI’s wider bore taper delivers a big, broad, bright tone and a responsive feel, while its nickel silver construction delivers additional high-octane punch. With its free-blowing design, the Super VI gives you total control over the dynamics and timbral variation of your Le Bravo. Growling, raspy, breathy, or sweet — the Super VI neck allows you to explore the full voice of your instrument, and you can push it as hard as you want with the confidence you’ll be rewarded with a commanding sound.

The benefits of ribbed body construction

Integrating the multiple key posts into a single plate, so-called “ribbed” body construction gives the tube higher mass (and hence more rigidity and durability), and requires somewhat more effort from the player. This makes the horn blow with moderate resistance while delivering a solid fundamental with rich tonal color. For experienced intermediate and pro saxophonists with a more developed embouchure and sound concept, it’s a definite advantage. Although ribbed construction typically presents a slightly increased initial resistance, it effectively gives you another level of resonance — an extra “gear,” if you will — to blow through for additional dynamic range and expression. Simply put, you can push the P. Mauriat Le Bravo 200T further, and it will go exactly where you want it to go.

Instruments that exude timeless character

The French brass and other metals used in P. Mauriat saxes are remarkably resonant due to the company’s arduous hand-hammering process, in which a saxophone body is hammered up to 400 times before moving on to the next artisan for final shaping. Tone holes are drawn from an instrument individually to ensure the precision and uniformity necessary for superior response and intonation. At P. Mauriat, lacquer is applied in three separate layers in order to achieve timeless, vintage visuals that will stand the test of time. Beautiful hand engraving is artfully performed with a simple hand tool and years of expertise. Once finished, each P. Mauriat saxophone is meticulously inspected and tested by one of the company’s roster of quality-control artists to make certain you receive a perfect instrument that will go the distance in your career.
