Before the current model lineup evolved, Keilworth imported some nice horns stamped “The New King” with rolled tone holes and plastic key guards (must be intact) that have a small following. Mostly in lacquer, add 10% for silver. Alto $1000 Tenor $1200. This model Keilwerth Saxophone has soldered-on rolled tone holes which give it a bit, fat sound quality and plenty of volume. If you want to be heard, you need to try one of these! This is a crazy low price for a horn of this quality and this one is in the best serial number range Keilwerth ever made!!
