Frequently Asked Questions
The S22's large bore creates a darker, more powerful tone compared to the S32's more focused, brighter sound. The S22 offers more projection but may require more air support.
The ML bell is quite versatile, working well for classical, commercial, and even some jazz, but those needing a truly brilliant, cutting edge tone might prefer a more flared bell.
Schilke’s valve action is known for its smoothness and precision, thanks to their meticulous engineering; the S22 feels exceptionally light and responsive, requiring less effort for fast passages.
