As of 5/'09 I am now a Pro Artist for CE Winds. www.christopherelliottinc.com/ Because of the high quality and amazing playability of the saxes I've recently gotten from them, I'm happier than ever with my sound. As one of my sax teachers, Joe Viola stated, "It's in the S--O--W--U--N-D-" (while emphasizing the sound of the word sound). Amazing concept, and thanks to CE Winds my tone is the best it's ever been on all three of these great saxophones! Thank You Mark and Brian!!
