In beautiful original condition, this is a smokin' horn from 1970 with excellent projection and a timbre that is medium bright. A healthy mix of the partials in the sound makes for a nice complex, harmonic blend. The lower and mid range are even and as a byproduct of the horn not being overly bright the upper end is not shrill or “whiney”. The horn has a response that features the feel of being alive with vibration. Also, this versatile alto is very receptive to different styles of mouthpieces from a rubber Selmer to a metal Dukoff. A no excuses top of the line VI. There are fresh pads throughout and the Selmer case is included
