Sonore

I have a Alto Sax that has Sonore on the body and made in Italy. I have been trying to find some information about the sax but have come up empty. Can anyone help me?

    There were lots of cheaply made Italian saxophones sold under obscure "stencil" brands from manufacturers such as Orsi, Santoni, Rampone, and Grassi, until Asian manufacturers started to take over that niche in the 1980s.  Be careful about the amount of money you might put into repairs on such a horn - it could easily exceed its value.
