The company was founded in 1996 by musicians Tevis and Sheryl Laukat, and is based in Sandy, Utah.[1] Cannonball specializes in professional, handmade, and uniquely "acoustically hand customized" instruments.[2][3] SaxophonesCannonball Musical Instruments first began as a saxophone manufacturer.

Hand-engraved modelsMost professional Cannonball saxophone models are hand engraved at the Utah facility, and are categorized as Unlimited or Limited.[8] Unlimited
LimitedA limited hand-engraving series for alto and tenor Vintage Reborn Series saxophones is made concurrently with the unlimited engravings. Chronologically, the limited engraving series to date are:
The first Pete Christlieb signature Vintage Series models were a limited edition sporting an engraving motif of a drag racer emitting smoke and flames to portray one of Christlieb's interests.[11] Following the limited series, these Signature models were engraved with an unlimited flower design, and were eventually replaced by the unlimited Vintage Reborn series. Serial Numbers and Manufacturing Dates of Saxophone ModelsA detailed list of serial numbers and approximate manufactured dates of Cannonball saxophones is available at the Serial Number Chronology page.
