Updates to WO Series
We’ve adjusted the angles of the two key touches operated by the right-hand little finger for easier reach and improved control by players with smaller hands.
A support “leg” has been added beneath the right-hand side keys for improved tactile feedback. Design changes to the key mechanism also ensure smoother action.
The low-A key touch combines a new shape and angle for quicker operation.
The new models use a larger key guard design that helps keep the instrument from becoming caught on the player’s clothing during performance.
The neck-strap ring has been relocated to allow more comfortable, ergonomic positioning during play.
The new neck design incorporates a triangular plate to prevent notes from cracking when the instrument is played with more volume and intensity. The brace plate is also a new design.
Changes were made to tonehole dimensions and layout to achieve a more-balanced scale with improved tonal stability, projection, and coloring.
Models like the BSB are equipped with a set of three floor pegs for use in varying performance situations. Floor pegs help reduce stress on the player’s neck and are also effective in bringing out the lower notes.
