The Saxony plays beautifully in the higher registers. I can't think of another chromatic harmonica that can compete with it. It's okay in the lower registers. I think it could still be improved there. Unfortunately, the slide is based on an old system with 4 parts. You basically have to clean it after every practice session to prevent it from getting stuck. I don't understand why Seydel didn't make it better. The same goes for the covers. They become uncomfortable to hold after prolonged use. Why didn't Seydel at least round off the corners? Despite all this, I can't do without this instrument. It has a great sound, and the reeds are very easy to play.
