The upgraded replacement for the legendary B991 series, this BWO10 brass model is made of a very high grade of brass with more ribbing than the BWO1 model. The BWO10s are probably the best made, most consistent saxophones available and are known for their clear dark sound.

Many professional performers in both the Jazz and Classical fields are favouring the BWO10 over other professional instruments. This instrument has exceptional intonation and a beautiful mellow sound. The evenness of tone and rich vibrant response in all registers and at all dynamic levels are unmatched.
