These saxophones are beautifully crafted and offer the more experienced player a great alternative to a standard brass body sax. The character of this instrument is naturally darker and warmer but still offers a wealth of expressive possibilities depending on the player and their mouthpiece preference. This sax can still be pushed easily for a more commercial sound and is equally at home in a pure classical setting. The build quality is top notch and assures the player of reliability and durability with this sax.
