Howarth S45CT - Professional

Graduate model, designed for the diploma level player or more serious amatuer.

The S45CT benefits from a thicker wall body design compared to the S40. This extra weight and thickness gives the S45 a darker and more powerful sound.

It has a simplified conservatoire system mechanism with additional thumbplate. This allows the player to use a wide range of alternative fingerings, with features found on very expensive models including mechanisms for many extra trills.

Good tuning scale and an excellent tone make this a great upgrade instrument for the advanced player.

Specifications:

African blackwood body, G#-A Trill, Ab-Bb Trill, Double C-head, Bb vent key on bell. Supplied with protective case and cleaners, luxury case cover.
