Re: Selmer ref. 54 model 74 Vs Keliworth shadow
ive played both and like said above u really need to play both of them back to back, but for a very generalization, now remember u can get any sound u want out of almost every horn, just one will lend itself to one kind easier, now that said, keilworth shadow will remind you of an old conn with a fat low end big bell, and just over all like a conn, then the sel,er really does do a good job of being like a mark VI(which ive played several) but the mark has a smaller bell so a tougher low end but can be just as fat with practice. Another thing to think about the selmer has a much tighter/closer ergonomics(key placement and feel) the keilworth is like a tank and big wide ergonomics. And to end this, there both great horns and i personally own a Ref 54, and never doubt my choice, i love it.
P.S. im assuming ur talking tenor becase u said yts which stands for a yamaha tenor.
