SN: 352404
Key Characteristics:
Sound: Renowned for a rich, powerful, and soulful sound with a lot of "kick," making it popular for jazz, blues, and rock and roll.
Neck: Models from this era often feature the distinctive "double socket" (or double-walled) neck, designed to improve resonance and ensure a solid fit.
Keywork: The keywork is considered ergonomic and modern for its time, with a quick response.
Construction: These are well-crafted, durable horns. The 1955 model might show some signs of cost-cutting compared to pre-WWII Zephyrs, but they are still well-regarded for their build quality.
Aesthetics: The finish is typically lacquer, which can show wear over time. Some special versions (the "Zephyr Special") had additional features like mother-of-pearl key touches, a sterling silver neck, or a silver-plated bell, but the standard Zephyr has a brass body and neck
