A modern alto with an old soul

The Duke Alto brings together rolled tone holes, premium Pisoni pads, responsive keywork and a RESO+ neck developed specifically for the instrument. The result is a warm, centred alto with an immediate response and a distinctive vintage-inspired voice.

MASTER ENGRAVING

Seven hours. Every line by hand.

The Duke is brought to life by two master engravers with more than 50 years of combined experience. Each instrument requires around seven hours of meticulous hand engraving, with intricate Art Deco-inspired patterns flowing across the bell and bow to create Atlantic’s unmistakable signature style.

I can't put it down

Jamie was super helpful guiding me with this alto and it's absolute perfection. I haven't been this excited about a new saxophone in years. I can't put it down!

I just received my Duke Alto and I have to tell you I am blown away by how stunningly beautiful it is. Everything from the case to the finish to the key guards is a testament to just how much thought went into the entire project. Well done!
