Keilwerth
Shadow Alto Sax
The saxophone manufacturer
Julius Keilwerth presents the new SX 90 R "Shadow" model saxophone.
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.
The new Keilwerth "Shadow" saxophone combines the advantages
of nickel silver with those of a black nickel plated finish.
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.
"Shadow" : the top saxophone for those who are looking for
something exceptional!
