Keilwerth
SX90R Alto Sax
"Professional
model. Since 1925, Keilwerth has concerned itself with creating
saxophones that allow the musician to shape his own sound
and style. With this in mind, Keilwerth took the technical
advantages and improvements of the SX90, and added some extra
features to truly make the musician‘s instrument his own.
The result was the SX90 R (the R standing for tonehole rings),
a saxophone reminiscent of the old Conn and Buescher saxes
of the 1940s.
The most striking feature of this saxophone is its toneholes.
The SX90 R Alto sax uses tonehole rings which are soldered
on to the standard drawn toneholes. The tonehole rings give
the pads a longer life, and the rings themselves are easier
to replace if necessary, because they are a piece separate
from the tonehole. The production of darker, more immediate,
less focused sound is an added benefit of the tonehole rings,
which allow the musican to form his own individual voice.
Each saxophone is inspected by experienced professionals.
The SX90R alto saxophones are available in the following finishes:
Gold lacquer
Nickel plated and clear lacquered, keys gold lacquered
Black nickel plated and clear lacquered, keys gold lacquered
