A Bauhaus Walstein Action Improved Model, this saxophone has been marked with the wrong model number on the bell - sss-yd instead of css-yd; there is some corrosion around the strap ring. The instrument is new, it has been checked thoroughly by our technician and is in excellent working and playing order. It comes with all the original accessories including case, mouthpiece, ligature and sling.

The Bauhaus-WALSTEIN Lacquer finish BS-YD 'action improved' Baritone Saxophone is identical to the bronze BS-PD above, except for the body material, which is American brass. Comes complete with mouthpiece, ligature and cap and its own home on wheels which is really very manoeuvrable for such a large beast.

Double Hinge on Low A to create lightness of action.
Adjustable thumb rest.
Box Lyre Holder.
Water key for elimination of condensation.
Hand hammered detachable bell.

The Bauhaus-WALSTEIN 'Action-Improved' Alto Saxophone is an excellent student/intermediate instrument with body in bronze and gold lacquer keywork. It comes complete with mouthpiece, ligature and cap and a rucksack style case with extra padding, integral rucksack straps, and large external pocket. Good, positive action and versatile, mellow tone, blue steel needle springs, Italian leather pads, high F#, fine adjustment screws and underslung crook. Great outfit and very good value given the nature of the materials used, the quality of the keywork and the timbre of sound. Key of Eb.

For this Deluxe Model, Bauhaus have rebuilt the action using shoulderless point screws and redesigned pillar-rod mechanism. The screws are manufactured from hardened steel, and the housing mechanism is carefully engineered around them creating greater ergonomics, making for a smoother, more responsive action.

This saxophone is brand new and plays extremely well, however it has some tarnish around the bow strap hence the price reduction. This is a one-off item.
