Product Features

One-Piece Bell with New Engraving

V1 Neck

The wide bore taper of the V1 neck provides a free-blowing feel and the greatest possible flexibility.

Improved Low B-C# Connection

An improved mechanism from low B-C# connection ensures the consistent closing of the low C# key and promotes a clear response from notes in the low range of the instrument.

Lighter Thumb Hook and Thumb Rest Bases

Lighter thumb rest and thumb hook base designs produce better response and a more cohesive tone.

Adjustable Front F Key

An adjustable Front F mechanism gives the player the freedom to find the optimal level of resistance in the altissimo range.
