I poured through all the various models that Pete had originally uploaded to Saxpics, and also compared this horn to the various old JK horns that I have in Bassic Sax Pix. The left and right pinkie keys however, are typical Keilwerth though…
(The latter were designed by Max Keilwerth.) This type of tone hole is usually associated with Martin, and early Hohner President saxophones. The engraving on other side of the bell offers no clue as to the model either.Īlso, note that this sax doesn’t have JK’s usual rolled tone holes, but rather bevelled ones. It comes in a nice case but with no mouthpiece. The instrument may need some adjustment and cleaning. The golden color is partly a bit worn, the pads looks ok, Im sure they will work for some more time. The bell reads:”Julius Keilwerth” The table reads: “Keilwerth”. This is how the seller describes the horn on the UK eBay site: A quick look at the bell engraving suggests it’s not that model.Īs a matter of fact, according to the seller, there’s no model name engraved on the bell at all. My immediate thinking was: “It must be a King”. Pick up welcome from Melbournes south east Will ship worldwide at cost.Do you fashion yourself an armchair detective?
