Polished brass, Clear lacquered

High Harmonic key adds an additional octave vent on the neck and an additional thumb
lever to actuate it. Facilitates altissimo notes. |
|
Polished brass, Matte lacquered
Available only without engraving. Polished brass but lacquered in a golden matte lacquer. It looks like gold leaf, but
isn't, of course. Stunning new look! |
|
Black lacquered, Engraved
This striking finish comes from black lacquer applied to the body while the keys and the interior of the bell are polished and
clear lacquered. Engraving on the bell and bow exposes the golden color of the brass underneath. The whole body is then clear lacquered to protect the engraving from tarnishing. |
|
Brushed, Engraved, Clear lacquered
a.k.a Matte. This subtle but elegant finish comes from the contrast between a brushed, not polished body and keys
which are polished and clear lacquered. Bell and bow are fully engraved and the whole body is then clear lacquered to protect the engraving from tarnishing. |
|
Silver-plated, Engraved This gorgeous finish is stronger than lacquer and improves tonal brightness and power by virtue of eliminating the high
frequency sound absorption of lacquer finishes. |
|
NEW! SOLID STERLING SILVER with Polished Brass Keywork, Clear lacquered
Available only without engraving. Neck, body, bow
and bell in Solid Sterling Silver. Provides a velvety, silky quality to the sound only solid silver can provide. Brass keywork. Completely clear lacquered. |
