You know, if you get your ass up and look, you could probably find it...you know, instead of having other people look for you.

hehe... zebu... sorry, just love the name.
Okay, Soprillo, Sopranino, Soprano, Alto, Contralto, Tenor, Baritone, Bass, Contra Bass.
And there is also the Saxello, sax horn and tubax... but if u ask me, they don't count.

you are missing a lot in there , there is roughly 17 different saxs, sopranino(Eb), soprano(Bb), soprano(C), mezzo-soprano(f), alto(Eb), concert alto(c), mezzo-alto(f), tenor(Bb), concert tenor(C), mezzo-tenor(F), Baritone (Eb), bass(Bb), contraalto(EEb), contrabass(BBb). this is just a quick list off the top of my head. a lot of these were made for a one time deal. mezzo saxs weren't very popular, neither was the sopranino sax. hope this helps.

Sax list. Not sure how complete this is, but I'll give it a try!
Bb Soprillo (sopranissimo)
Eb Sopranino (curved and straight)
F Sopranino (in Ravel's 'Bolero'--straight, probably, if it existed)
C Soprano (curved and straight)
Bb Soprano (curved, straight, and saxello shaped)
A Soprano (not sure if it actually existed, but there has been talk of it)
F Mezzo Soprano (curved and Conn-O-Sax 'heclekphone' shaped)
Eb Alto (curved and straight)
C Melody (C Tenor)
Bb Tenor (Straight and Saxello Shaped)
F Baritone (curved--may have been only one--see saxpics.com)
Eb Baritone (Curved and Saxello shaped--see Jay C. Easton's pages)
Bb Bass (curved)
Eb Contrabass Sax (curved)
Eb Tubax (curved, like the contra)
BBb Subcontrabass (BBb Tubax, curved)
There have been other 'humongous' saxes, but they really didn't play--just for show and advertisements--see my web pages for pics.

Since my last post, I have seen other odd saxes:
Conn-O-Sax F MezzoSoprano Sax (straight) with a Hecklephone Bell
Sax-Oboe Double reeded saxophone (Boehm fingering)
Straight C Melody (C Tenor) was custom built from a normal C Melody
Saxello Bb Soprano with tipped bell, and bent neck
Stritch Modified Saxello (Rahsaan Roland Kirk)
Manzello Modified Straight Alto Sax
One handed F MEzzo Soprano sax for a circus performer (I think)
Have you found others??
