I just picked up this bari. I am thinking is was made by Amati in the mid 60's from what I can gather from this group. The pads are red and have no resonators, I don't know if they are the original pads. Came with a Brilhart Tonaline mouthpiece. I was wondering about thoughts on the mouthpiece with this sax and to confirm the manufacture.

Thank You in advance.

I'd second your Amati suggestion.

Thank you Stitch.

I emailed Amati and Thomas Prem from Amati confirmed that they made the instrument. He couldn't date it because they don't have records, he said it was probably from the 50's or early 60's.
