Passion, creativity and attention to detail.
The artist who buys a Rampone R1 Jazz Saxophone knows that he/she has decided to welcome into his/her life an instrument with a wealth of history backed up by modern Italian craftsmanship. As a “Hand Made Saxophone” each one is unique and has its own identity, much like the artist to which it is to be wed.
When ready for presentation to you, the artist, the sax is engraved by hand making it an even more precious reminder that you are not just playing a saxophone but a Rampone Saxophone.
