White designed a trombone for Thomas King, a local player. It became the companys first successful model when it was adopted by Al Pinard, then a famous trombone player. White later designed other brass instrument models, including cornets and baritones. Reynolds, a talented brass instrument maker at the J.W. York Sons company. He worked with White to further develop instruments. H. N. White sought to expand its offerings to woodwinds starting in 1908, importing Evette Schaeffer saxophones and clarinets manufactured by the Buffet Crampon Company of France. After the import rights for Buffet products were lost to Carl Fischer of New York in 1910, White started importing woodwinds from the V. Kohlert Company, then located in the Czech province of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The First World War interrupted the trade of the Czech instruments, so White sought a domestic supplier in the Cleveland Musical Instrument Company in 1916. Many of the earliest saxophones supplied by Cleveland Musical Instruments were made for military bands as the United States entered World War I. ![]() In 1925, H.N. White acquired the Cleveland Musical Instrument Company.

In 1935 Foster Reynolds left his position as General Manager of the H.N. White Company, and founded the rival F.A. Reynolds company. Reynolds would later design the extremely successful Ambassador line of brasswind instruments for F. E. Olds. 3 The H.N. White Company began producing stringed instruments in 1935. Henderson White died in 1940. White, acted as president, 2 and his widow, Edna White, took over as president in 1941. During World War II, the company received government contracts to assemble radar units and fuses. Ednas daughter, Cathryn White Ludwig, married William F. Ludwig, Jr of the drum-percussion company W.F.L. Drum Company. Cathryn was named the Vice-President of H.N. White in 1945, making it one of the few companies in America headed by two women. H. N. White put itself on the path to being a major player in the saxophone market dominated by Buescher, C. G. Conn, and Martin during the interwar years. King saxophones had brazed-on tonehole chimneys, which have significant advantages over both the soldered-on and drawn types used by other manufacturers. The King Saxello was a soprano saxophone with a downward curve near the mouthpiece and a bell curved 90 degrees from the body, for optimal playing position and acoustic qualities. With improvements to saxophone design embodied by the King Zephyr in 1935, H. N. Whites position as a leading manufacturer of saxophones was firmly established. The Zephyr Special was introduced as a deluxe version in 1938, with a changed bore and mother of pearl inlay on all keytouches. Sterling silver necks and bells became available. The King lines run of success continued after World War II, with highly desired lines of woodwind and brass instruments. Several famous musicians were featured playing King instruments, including Tommy Dorsey, Charlie Parker, and Harry James. The Zephyr Special was upgraded the Super 20 in 1945, featuring a distinctive underslung octave key mechanism and double-socket neck.
