It's a low pitch. Pierret only mad saxophones and nothing else. They used to specialise in making quality stencils for other companies. In the UK and France all horns made by Pierret are considered to be amazing. They were so good that they were bought for orchestral and solo performances at professional level around the world. They never made inferior stencils. their stencil horns were always at the superior end of a companies range of saxophones. I have had this particular horn valued and compared with other horns and the price range always differs. For quality and performance the horn is valued well above the £1000. But they are also said to be a poor mans selmer mark VI. Everyone which has tried any of my pierret horns have been amazed by their performance. It just goes to show that people are still prepared to pay for name over performance. In my opinion, what ever that is worth, any pierret professional horn will simply blow away its competition from selmer, yani and other top horn, but obviously that depends on the player and their desired style. im obviously biast.
