Reviews

“Ignoring the sterling silver options for a moment, this is the top model in the new SWO range and delivers on all fronts. The combination of the bronze material, the newly engineered bore and tone-holes, and the metal pad reflectors all come together to give the most incredible results; it’s highly responsive at all dynamic levels, and the tone can be sweet, focused and introverted at lower air velocities, while open and expansive when pushed, and everything in-between. Very satisfying to play indeed. I’d find it hard to believe that any serious soprano player would dismiss this sax once tried!”  Jim Cheek – SAX
