But secondly and far more importantly I've always had an issue with the intonation on Keilwerth sopranos: this can take much longer to adjust to. Now, this aspect is just a matter of familiarity and I don't think it would take me long to adjust. Firstly the keywork has always seemed rather industrial, much less smooth and refined than a Selmer and placed in somewhat different positions ergonomically. My problems with Keilwerth sopranos have been two-fold. Both were terrific instruments, but I really always felt that the Keilwerth tenors were the best of their range I could have played their altos with a bit of adjustment, but.I was never really happy on their sopranos. I had a short stint with a Couf tenor in the 1970s and a couple of years with an SX90R tenor in the 1990s. I'm a Selmer player and have been for most of my career.
The new Keilwerth soprano in Sax.co.uk is actually the Liebman model the SX90DL - not the Liebman Signature SX90DLS - but to all intents and purposes according to Sal Maniscalco these two models are very similar from the playing pov.
