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 Body
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 nickel
silver lacquer and 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.
Includes Case, Strap and Reed
The Saxophone comes complete with a hard case, reed, strap and
pad saver so the learner has everything they need to get started
straight away and to properly care for the instrument. The included
case is ideal for transporting the instrument to lessons and
performances. It's durable but lightweight and is a perfect fit for
the saxophone providing protection when out and about and safe
storage when not in use. It's finished with a tough outer and plush
interior and includes space for accessories.
There's also a mouthpiece with reed and ligature plus a padsaver
which is used to clean the instrument and prevent corrosive
build-up.
Complete Pack
For those just starting out, or if you're simply looking for a
more complete set-up, this alto saxophone also comes in a Gear4music Alto Saxophone Complete Package
which includes a number of additional accessories including music
stand and instructional DVD.
