I want a GAHOON, with the clear tone of an E-flat saxophone! Play sweet, play hot. Swing, boogie woogie, or rumba with only a reed and a spring. (See back cover.)

Update: There is a YouTube video of a guy playing a gahoon! He made it himself using an oboe reed instead of a saxophone reed. This may be what changed the original instrument's "sweet, hot tone" into what one commentator described as the sound of a goose being strangled.
