About this instrument
This one is currently in the Key Works workshop. Like every instrument we sell, it will be fully serviced, adjusted and regulated before it goes on sale, then play tested so we know it's ready to go straight from the case. More photos will be added here once it's finished.
Finished in silver plate, which gives a warmer, richer tone than a plain nickel finish while still being durable and easy to keep looking smart. Pearl's pinless mechanism gives the keys a smooth, even feel and helps them stay in regulation for longer. The closed-hole keys are more forgiving for smaller or developing hand positions, since there's no need to seal each hole perfectly to get a clean note. The offset G key sits closer to a natural hand position, reducing strain during longer practice sessions, and the split E mechanism makes the notoriously tricky third-octave E far easier to produce cleanly, useful as playing moves into higher registers. The C foot keeps the instrument compact and well balanced, ideal for players still building hand strength and reach.
Want first refusal? Register your interest and we'll let you know as soon as it's ready, before it goes on general sale.
