L.A. Sax Straight Tenor

This instrument caught my eye, it's a tenor saxophone in a straight configuration. It made me think of a soprano sax on steroids.

Jordan Electric Violins

Here is another take on the electric violin. They've moved as much as possible from the head to the body of the body to make the instrument more balanced easier to play for extended periods. They have a large number of options including this bitchin' gold metalflake finish.

They had some nice cleanly designed electric violins. This company also makes folding stands for violins and saxes.
