Frequently Asked Questions

The .525” bore offers a darker, more focused tone compared to wider bores, potentially requiring more breath support for louder passages.
Yes, nickel silver will tarnish over time; regular polishing with a suitable silver polish will keep it looking its best.
The closed wrap is ideal for traditional orchestral or band settings where a focused, even tone is desired, but might not be ideal for jazz or more modern styles requiring extreme upper register flexibility.
