Playing the High F# key on saxophone is awkward and slow due to the key's bad ergonomics. The RULON Key Riser for High F# is an stackable key riser to bring the key close to your hand so a quick finger flick is all you need to play it and unlock new altissimo options.

The RULON Saxophone Key Riser comes with stacking spacers that add 7–16mm of height to the High F# key, so it meets the natural arch of you hand and is as easy to play as standard sax pearls.

The result is faster more relaxed play — removing the standard ‘retract + press + replace’ action with a single swift finger flick. Now it's like playing left hand palm keys, just drop a knuckle.

Features:

• Fits alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones with High F# key
• Non-permanent mod that’s easy to install or remove
• Adds 7–16mm to the High F# key for improved reach and comfort
  
• Gives fast, fluid access to altissimo sax notes
• Helps players with large hands, arthritis, or limited mobility
• Available in a plastic version, or premium made-to-order metal options
• Includes Dr. Robert Brooks' altissimo note chart optimized for F# key use

Rulon Brown crafted this Key Riser design after talking with Dr. Robert Brooks about saxophone ergonomics. As a veteran saxophonist and educator, Dr. Brooks spent decades mastering altissimo techniques using alternate fingerings on vintage horns without the High F# key. But when he began using a modern saxophone with the High F# key, he found the ergonomics limiting—especially due to his large hands.

“I love the tone clarity that a High F# key provides,” said Dr. Brooks. “But it’s a sluggish reach that slows me down. I needed a better way, especially for my large hands. It was awesome that Rulon was willing to take on the design challenge.”

After months of testing prototypes on Dr. Brooks' and Rulon's personal saxes, this adjustable key riser system was born. No matter your hand size, it helps make the High F# key easier to play.

Altissimo Fingering Chart Included

Dr. Brooks was so inspired using the RULON Saxophone Key Riser, he created a custom set of altissimo fingerings optimized for use with the High F# key. This exclusive fingering chart offers clean, reliable options for getting in and through the altissimo range.
