Dukoff ‘D8 – Nickel Plated Brass’ Tenor, Ser#

Dukoff D8, Nickel-Plated Brass, Tenor:

From Chadd's Collection:

Price: ON TRIAL

Make: Dukoff
Model: Nickel-plated brass(Transitional)
Number: D8
Era: 1960s?

Status: SOLD
Ligature: N/A
Facing: near Original Tip
Tip-Size: 0.112"

These are often called the "Transitional" model as they were after the brass era (BD and Stubby) and before the Silverite ("Miami, FL").

The original tip @ 0.112" was touched by another famous mouthpiece refacer. It plays as big and awesome as Sarge's did! (I put them side by side).

Sarge's notes on these ones: "Nickel silver plated brass (prototype to SPC or Dave Guardala), original tip D8, unfooled with--$1200."...as he had one in his collection.

Repairs: The rails has some brass showing so I silver plated the rails to seal them.
