Description
- Denuded of lacquer and plating, the Bauhaus Earth Series still has the quality of timbre and the big-bell oomph of the original Silver/gold series, but the sound is more focused and altogether darker; a velvety range of overtones with a more resonant growl in the lower register, complimented, in the alto and tenor by the classic M2 "power" bell.
The Earth saxophones’ raw brass finish alters over time: gets better with age and helps create a unique look and feel to the saxophone.
Brave the elements with the Earth Series. Get your hands dirty.
