Eastman has come to the market represented by this model as a great ambassador, the baritone saxophone model 52 street. It is an instrument with a large bell and rolled tone holes that favour a dark, fleshy sound with a lot of volume. The finish is presented without any lacquer, where the vintage look is fully reflected. Ergonomics in the keyboard has also been an important aspect to take into account in the manufacturing of this saxophone, including adjustment screws in the left hand palm keys (C1, C2 and C4).
The 52nd Street Baritone Saxophone is a professional instrument without lacquer with a truly vintage look. Exceptionally sensitive in all registers, it produces a warm, wide sound with a centred tuning. A larger bell and extended chimneys contribute to the sound qualities of this instrument which many compare to some of the great saxophones of the past. Solid construction with a comfortable hand position and extras such as adjustable side keys.
