J. Keilwerth SX90R Alto Saxophone, Shadow
Since 1925 Keilwerth deals with saxophones
that allow the musicians to shape their own sound and style. Under this guideline Keilwerth took over the technical advantages and improvements of the SX 90 saxophone and added further features to tune the instrument completely to the musician. The result is the Julius Keilwerth saxophone SX90R (the R stands for Rolled tone holes ), a saxophone reminiscent of the old Conn and Buescher saxophones of the 40s.
The most outstanding feature of this saxophone is, in addition to the tone holes, the body material nickel silver (instead of brass). This material has a strong resonance and a centered and powerful sound as well as additional depth. For the Julius Keilwerth saxophone SX90R rolled tone holes are used, which are soldered to the standard drawn tone holes. The crimp rings increase the durability of the upholstery and, if necessary, can be easily replaced.
