Hi I live in St Albans and am keen to see the Dolnet if it can be arranged.Hi, I am based in sunny Hertfordshire and I would like to know if your Dolnet still available? Cheers Grandad
i've just spent all my money, or else.... i bought a dolnet alto, but a bel-air. nice saxophone. i have a keilwerth tenor coming. i got (another) pierret, i hope it's in better condition than the one i bought in france(!) and i'm going to get a kohlert full pearl special next week. anyone lend me any money? i'd like to try all the twiddly bits on a royal jazz. by the way, it being royal, prince died on the queen's birthday.
I seem to remember that @Pete Thomas had an odd angled bell Dolly.I have a Dolnet "M70" alto dating from the early 1970s. It's one of the last horns Dolnet made before they closed down. The angle of the bell seems "wrong" at first because it points in an unexpected direction. However, the sax sounds unmistakeably French i.e. has a focussed, "woody" core to the sound. My only gripe is that the build quality of the keywork (though adequate) doesn't seem to have the same precision as my Beaugniers. That said, I'd be reluctant to sell my Dolnet alto because it sounds good.

I am holding it for him until the end of the much feared 2016.
Yes, Aldevis has very kindly agreed to give me some time, for which I am most grateful.I am holding it for him until the end of the much feared 2016.
Stay tuned.
