Re: the sound I am looking for
I would look for something metal, open, with relatively short facing and a fairly high baffle. Prices will vary greatly. I've played on a steel Berg Larson 130/0 SMS that I sould use for more funk type stuff, but I'm not sure if you'd get the husky quality in the sound. Either way, those are some general guides for that kind of edgy projection you want. For reeds, I like Vandoren ZZ/JAVA, but that's just my personal preference (everyone has one). Others probably have more/better/different ideas about reeds for that specific sound. Whatever you choose, that Keilwerth is, in my opinion, a good horn for that timbre. Remember to play from the souls (pun intended) of your shoes to get that fatty blast of sound!
