The Maui Xaphoon Bamboo Sax in Low G is a unique, handcrafted instrument created by inventor Brian Wittman in the rainforests of Maui, Hawaii. Made from carefully selected bamboo and toasted over an open flame, each instrument carries a distinctive burnt finish that enhances both its durability and natural beauty. No two are exactly alike, making every piece a work of art.
Tuned a fourth lower than the standard C model, this Low G Xaphoon produces a warm, resonant voice with remarkable depth. Its expressive sound spans two full octaves with a fully chromatic scale, offering musicians a wide tonal range for jazz, folk, world, or experimental music. Whether you are a professional musician exploring new timbres or a dedicated hobbyist, this instrument delivers a soulful and inspiring playing experience.
Lightweight and portable, the bamboo sax is ideal for travel while still producing a sound that rivals larger instruments. Each comes with an 8-page, hand-calligraphed instruction guide, helping players get started with techniques and scales.
The Maui Xaphoon Bamboo Sax in Low G is more than an instrument—it is a tribute to Hawaiian craftsmanship, musical innovation, and the timeless appeal of natural bamboo.
