Special features:
- C#-Bb table key linkages - The seesaw linkage between the C# and Bb table keys facilitates faster, smoother fingering technique.
- Adjustable vibration-damping bar - This enhancement dampens sympathetic vibrations in the right-hand F# key, thus stabilizing the production of notes in the lower register.
- Metal thumb hook & rest - Designed to make minimal point contact with the body, the thumb hook enables the instrument to resonate more freely while the brass thumb rest allows for smoother response and improved tonal balance.
- Needle springs - Used across our woodwind instruments, the blued-steel needle springs are more elastic than the stainless-steel variety, offer faster action and render a better command of difficult passages
- Tri-point brace - The tri-point bell-bow brace ensures structural stability and rigidity and enhances resonance even at fortissimo levels
- Orion Set II resin mix mouthpiece included
- Body collar attachment with dual screws
- Ribbed construction / straps reinforced into body - for sturdier post
