Most "modern" Buffet horns (after about 1930) usually tune to A=442, since most were being sold for the European market where slightly higher tuning was standard.
The release of the Senzo is arguably one of the finest new saxophones to come out in long time. Their saxophone production really took off in the 1950's, with the Dynaction and then Super Dynaction models, which many players consider to be some of the best French-made saxophones ever outside of "that other company in Paris." Buffet decided to go in a new direction in the 1970's with the "S" Series (S1, S2, S3), which were aimed more for strictly classical players. The early Buffet horns were in fact very similar to Adolphe Sax's original design. Buffet Crampon has a rich tradition in saxophone production, going back to the very early days of the instrument in the late 19th century.
