New WO Baritone Series

Evolution of the toneholes - Changes were made to tonehole dimensions and layout to achieve a more-balanced scale with improved tonal stability, projection, and coloring.

Evolution of the neck - 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.

Evolution of the low-A key - The low-A key touch combines a new shape and angle for quicker operation.

Evolution of the side keys - 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.

Evolution of the low C and D# keys - 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.

Evolution of the key guard - The new models use a larger key guard design that helps keep the instrument from becoming caught on the player's clothing during performance.
