Rheuben Allen '5 Series' Saxophones

 Rheuben Allen '5-Series' Power Neck Alto Saxophones  come in 3 finishes - Clear Lacquer - Black Nickel/Silver Keys - Silver

These Saxophones are the latest design and inspired by Rheuben Allen 'Music Manufacturer & Woodwind Designer'.

These are Intermediate Saxophones an they are designed with many of the attributes of a Professional horn with an affordable price. These are incredible horns.


Heavy Freedom/Power Neck Brace
This design removes the large amount of solder from under the neck that is used in the traditional neck brace. This large amount of solder under the traditional neck brace does not allow the neck to vibrate as well as with less solder. This brace is very strong and we think it looks cool.

The High F# key can be reached and operated by any of the first three fingers of the right hand. This will allow the saxophonist to choose the proper fingering for the passage at hand.
The Fork F# or Trill F# key can be reached with very little finger movement. This makes the use of the Fork F# a better choice for many hard passages.
All Rheuben Allen Saxophones feature the newly designed High F# and Trill F# keys. The High F# key makes it easy to operate with any of the first three fingers of the right hand. Making many hard passages seem easy. The trill F# key is easy to reach without having to bring the finger far from the D key as in the traditional key designs, and thus making some passages much easier to play.
Some of you may know, Dan Higgins and Rheuben Allen wrote a book many years ago called "High Notes for the Saxophone". It has always been Rheuben’s concept that the saxophonist should be able to reach the Harmonic or front F key.


Check out these Saxophones - Limited quantities - They are inspected by Rheuben Allen at the Factory before they leave the factory, and adjusted by Rheuben Allen trained technicians in the USA.

By the way, the Single Bar or Light Brace Rheuben Allen Alto Saxophones play outstanding as well.

Thanks for reading and stay tuned more to come.

Coming Soon to the website! http://www.kdimusic.com/ The Rheuben Allen "Almost Keyless Saxophone" is a valuable learning tool for the serious student, who wants to extend the range of the saxophone and learn how to play in tune. The most important reason to practice overtones is to learn how to play in tune correctly.

Using the correct reed strength with the correct mouthpiece tip opening; making sure you are playing with enough air pressure; using the correct embouchure. However perhaps the most important aspect of playing in tune is being able to control your throat position. Much like a singer, the saxophone player opens and closes their throat to fine tune the pitch of each note. Only this way will you truly be able to play in tune. Every day when you talk, your throat moves around constantly to help produce ...
