With the metal pieces on an Alto, the timbre will shift more towards the sweeter end of the scale. The set-ups on a metal piece typically involve a more stepped baffle going into a medium chamber. This, coupled with the fact that the profile of a metal piece is typically narrower, means the sound you produce is a lot more projected, focused and modern. This will mean you won’t blend and cleanly, and the tone you produce will feel funkier and bigger, so if you’re looking to sit into a big band unassumingly, this won’t be the way to go. However if you’re aiming for that rock/funk super clean edge to your tone, you will have this and projection in spades!
