I've gotta say that these 2 are amongst the crazier things i've seen.....yes that Claude Lakey....sax great BUT also played trumpet.....i have 2 theories on these.....they're either custom pieces made for him....or....they were made for him and sold out of his C&D Music Store north of Burbank.....the cups on both of these are VERY similar to Purviance shallow or medium shallow cups.....a bit too close to be i would imagine anything else....so i believe these were either made by Purviance or....early Bob Reeves.....the numbering is very interesting on this...L8.....on the smaller side around .610 shallower...28 throat.....and it does have a screw rim.....a bit odd as it stops deeper in the cup than usual....both play very well just too small for me......in great shape!!!!
