Independent shopping perspective
Allora’s AAS-580 Chicago Series alto saxophone is presented here in unlacquered brass. Over time, that finish develops a natural patina, so its appearance changes as the instrument is owned. The Expanded Bell is designed for punch and presence, with jazz and rock as key applications, while also addressing classical players who prefer a somewhat bigger sound. It carries a D-shaped neck and is aimed at advancing students, adult enthusiasts, and professionals.
