  This was Keilwerth's first offering of a top professional model. Known as a Series III, it features rolled tone holes and the plastic "Art Deco" key guard - Freshly overhauled and in excellent condition. This beauty was manufactured in 1958. It's a very resonant and responsive alto that features a rich, colorful sound. The key work is the older in-line configuration so, if you are used to a more modern keyboard layout, it may take a few minutes to get comfortable. The range is to high F (with a front F key). The intonation is quite good with a bit of flexibility that really makes the horn speak. A case is included.
