The Keilwerth Shadow Alto Sax combines the advantages of nickel silver with those of a black nickel plated finish.
With a black nickel plated body made from nickel silver, silver plated keys, and sophisticated engraving on body and bow,
this saxophone not only has an extraordinary appearance, it also features a new, ergonomically adapted keywork.
Nickel silver adapts to and conducts changing frequencies faster than other materials, resulting in a very direct response, and a well centred and extremely powerful sound.
Another important advantage is the reduced weight and the high stability.
In combination with the black nickel plating, a completely new sound spectrum is created.
