Alto Saxophone by Gear4music, Gold - Secondhand

Full Description

Reliable beginners instrument

This Alto Sax is ideal for more petite players due to its relatively light and small body which is comfortable to hold. The fact that it doesn't require too much 'puff' to produce a note and the ease in which the instrument stays in tune also make it a good choice for beginners. The combination of this instrument's size and range makes it extremely versatile and a popular choice amongst classical and jazz musicians.

Strong and durable

This instrument has been designed with affordability, durability and comfort in mind. The body is fully ribbed for strength helping it stand up to the demands of regular play and transport to and from lessons. The adjustable thumb rest, bell joint and stack adjusting screws can be used to make the set-up more comfortable. The saxophone's brass body is finished with a protective lacquer and gold polish.

Smooth response and tone

Blued steel springs provide a robust and durable action and give a brightness and snap to the instrument's sound whilst domed metal reflectors aid projection. The Gear4music Alto Sax has a light, free blowing response that will reward new players with excellent intonation and a stability and evenness throughout the registers. Precision drawn tone holes allow maximum air passage through the instrument without leakage or cutting of pads and an auxiliary high F# key extends the range and provides extra versatility. These features make it easy for students to start seeing results fast.
