Octave Key TypeOverslung with Strengthened BracingAn overslung octave mechanism is the standard system employed by most regular saxophones. It is the simplest mechanism for manufacture, and is to be found on 901, 902, AW01 and AW02 models. Plus this system is used on the T9937 silver model, as the softer, silver neck material does not allow for the fitting of the more advanced Underslung system. |
