  Anders Mooney has always been known for his flute production. Until 2000, the brand's chief technicians went to Germany and France to learn the saxophone production skills, and then integrated the exquisite flute production technology to achieve the epoch-making saxophone boutique.

  The flute production process and technical requirements have always been more demanding and precise. Therefore, Anders's flute-making technology is integrated into the production of Saxophone, which makes each process more accurate and perfect.

  Anders's saxophone has three different levels of models, the professional “Mooney the 1st”, the ultimate “Frank One,” and the standard “Standard ONE.”

  Anders Mooney 安德斯·慕尼一直以长笛製作闻名于世。直至2000年,品牌首席技师亲身前往德国及法国大萨克斯风技术强国学习萨克斯风製作技艺,再融入精湛的长笛製作技术,成就了划时代的萨克斯风精品。

  一直以来,长笛製作工艺及技术要求,都比萨克斯风製作要求更高,更精准。因此,安德斯以长笛製作技术融入于萨克斯风的製作,令每个工序有更高的准成度,工艺更臻完美。

  安德斯的萨克斯风有三个不同层级的型号,分别是专业型的Mooney the 1st (慕尼第一代),极致型的Frank One (法兰克一号),以及标准型的Standard ONE (标准一型)。

  Mooney the 1st

  "Mooney the 1st" was the first generation of Anders's Saxophone, and the first saxophone developed by Frank, the chief technician, was named after the commemoration of the founder of the brand. The design uses the traditional saxophone craftsmanship to create the first model of the saxophone with the aim of precise pitch and translucent sound. After the first mass production of "Mooney the 1st" mass production was launched. It was well-received by many musicians, and many brand followers purchased the collection. After more than a decade of changes and improvements, there are even better performances in material selection and configuration. The standard set of "Mooney the 1st", the body is made of first-class brass, with an Italian high-grade leather pad, which makes the sound stable and bright. In addition to the standard gold lacquer option, the 95 brass rose gold version is also the most popular configuration. With 95 brass as the body, the sound is brighter and more transparent. Jazz, and pop musicians highly praise it. Rose gold finish allows the overall appearance of the instrument to reach another high-end level.

  Mooney the 1st(慕尼第一代)

  慕尼第一代是安德斯·慕尼的首徒,首席技师法兰克于德国研製的第一把萨克斯风,为纪念品牌创办人而命名。在设计上沿用传统萨克斯风製作工艺,以精确的音准,透亮的音色为目标,製作出品牌首个型号之萨克斯风。慕尼第一代正式量产製作推出市场后,随即获一众乐手好评,亦有不少品牌追随者购买收藏。经历十数年的变化改良,在选材及配置上,有更优秀的表现。标准设置的慕尼第一代,管体选用一级黄铜,配以意大利高级皮垫,令音色稳定亮丽。除标准设置的金漆选项外,95铜玫瑰金版本亦是最受欢迎的配置,以95铜为管体能令音色更亮丽通透,深得爵士及流行乐手推崇,配以玫瑰金青漆表面处理,令乐器的整体外观达到另一层次,有更高端大气的体现。

  Frank ONE

  After "Mooney the 1st", the chief technician Frank once again went to France to improve saxophone production technology, and around all European countries, the production technique was full. Finally, the collection of France, Germany, Austria, and other technologies, the ultimate model of the brand was born, Frank One. The instrument is made of a special grade thick brass with special SZ lacquer and is decorated with Austrian national edelweiss in a master carving process. The sound is thick and pure, clear and transparent, with ever-changing performance but without losing its unique character. The tone-hole drawing adds the drawn technology of flute so that the material thickness around each tone-hole is more even; performance is more balanced, even low, medium, high range, and altissimo. The bass zone button is equipped with a double-arm key design to enhance the instrument's air density. With the button adjustment screw design in different areas, the musician can easily fine-tune the state of the instrument. In addition to the underlying gold paint configuration, the Frank One also has raw brass, full raw brass and silver-plated versions, among which the full raw brass version is the most popular and most distinctive.

  The ordinary raw brass version is not painted on the surface, but the surface is treated with a specific syrup, which adds a layer of protection to the surface, which slows the oxidation of the tube, and makes the instrument dull with an antique taste. After this surface treatment, it will become warmer and softer, playing classical and blue-tone music, and have a taste.

  Frank ONE(法兰克一号)

  在慕尼第一代面世后,首席技师法兰克再次前往法国增进萨克斯风製作技术,并在欧洲不同国家饱覧各地製作工艺,最后集合法、德、奥等技术之大成,研发出安德斯·慕尼品牌的极致型号,法兰克一号。乐器选用指定特级加厚黄铜,配以特制SZ青漆,以大师级凋刻工艺以奥地利国花雪绒花作装饰。音色沉实纯厚,清澈通透,有着千变万化的表现但不失独特的性格。音孔抽拉工艺加入长笛的音孔抽拉技术,令每个音孔周围材质厚度更平均,音孔的表现更平衡,在低、中、高音,什至超吹的表现,都有平衡稳定的体现。低音区域按键配以双键臂设计,加强乐器气密度。再配以不同区域的按键调整螺丝设计,使乐手能轻易自行微调乐器的状态。法兰克一号除了基本金漆配置外,亦有裸铜、全裸铜及镀银版本,当中以全裸铜版本最受欢迎及最具特色。

  普通裸铜版本表面不上漆,但会以特定药水处理表面,从而令表面加上一层保护,令管体氧化速度减慢,同时亦令乐器色泽暗淡,带有一种古董的味道,而声音经此表面处理后,会变的较为温暖柔和,演奏古典及蓝调音乐,别有一番味道。

  Of course, the most popular full raw brass version must be mentioned. The full raw brass version of the instrument has not undergone any chemical treatment and is basically polished before leaving the factory. Then the technician will handcraft polish it once before picking up the goods. Because there is no top coat and no chemical process, the sound of the instrument is clear and transparent, clean and bright, and is popular with musicians. But at the same time, because there is no processing on the surface of the instrument, it takes more thoughts on maintenance, and developing a relationship with the instrument. The most special place of the Frank One full raw brass version is the special nature of the brass material it chooses. When the musician can adequately maintain the instrument, the color of the instrument will change with time. The taste of the antique and the color of this kind of human can be produced without any brand of musical instruments. When you have a full raw brass version of Frank One, don't leave him alone and ignore him. His charm will go with time. He has his own character, a human nature musical instrument. Only the musician's performance and patient maintenance can control him. However, even though this version is trendy, due to the extremely short idle storage time of the raw brass instrument, to ensure the quality of the instrument, the brand will not allow the dealer to keep stock, and can only order the order when the customer purchases. The waiting time ranges from four to six months, so it is like the antique flute of Anders Mooney, a saxophone model that which cannot be met.

  当然不得不提的是最受欢迎的全裸铜版本,全裸铜版本乐器完全没有经过任何化学处理,只在出厂前作基本抛光。然后在客人取货前由技师人手抛光一次。由于没有面漆,亦没有任何化学工序,因此乐器声音清澈通透,乾淨明亮,深受广大乐手欢迎。但同时因乐器表面没有任何加工处理,在保养方面需要多下一番心思,与乐器多培养感情。而法兰克一号全裸铜版本最特别的地方,是其指定选用之铜材拥有的特殊性质,就是当乐手能好好保养乐器的情况下,乐器的色泽会除着时间变化,渐渐出现带有魅力的古铜味道,而这种人情培养的色泽是没有任何品牌的乐器能製作出来。当你拥有一把全裸铜版本法兰克一号时,千万不要将他閒置一旁不理他,他的魅力会随着时间流逝,这是一把有性格,有人性的乐器,能驾驭他的,只有乐手的演奏和耐心的保养。

  然而即使此版本深受欢迎,但由于全裸铜乐器的容许閒置存库时间极短,因此为了保証乐器的质量,品牌一律不容许经销商存库,只能在客户购买时才下单订製,而轮候时间为四至六个月不等,因此与安德斯·慕尼的古董长笛一样成为了可遇而不可求的萨克斯风型号。

  Standard ONE

  After the introduction of the previous two models of saxophone, the market was highly praised. Many customers began to inquire about the entry standard model, so the development of the Anders standard type, many beginners started to buy.

  Anders Standard One selects the finest brass as the material, with the German and Austrian exquisite craftsmanship, the special gold lacquer surface treatment, and the advanced Italian keypad, making the sound easier and purer. The carved flower is made of Austrian national flower edelweiss, with white pearl keys, and the design is concise. The instrument works sturdy and sound, sounds easy, and strong. It is a rare entry-level instrument, which is cost-effective and suitable for beginners.

  Standard ONE (标准一型)

  在之前两个型号之萨克斯风推出市场后,大获好评,同时亦有大量客户开始查询入门标准型号,因此研发出安德斯标准一型,让广大初阶人士选购。安德斯标准一型精选上等黄铜作原材料,配合德奥精湛工艺,特制青漆表面处理,高级意大利皮垫,令发声更容易,更纯淨。凋花选用奥地利国花雪绒花,配合珍珠白彩贝接键,设计简洁。乐器做工结实稳妥,发声容易,声音结实。是不可多得的入门乐器,性价比高,适合初学者使用学习,事半功倍。
