Trevor James EVO Soprano Saxophone, Gold Lacquer

Full Description

Assured quality control

When designing the Evo, Trevor James wanted to ensure that they would capture the excitement of new players. By streamlining the manufacturing and reducing costs where possible, Trevor James was able to produce the Evo to a much higher standard than similarly priced saxophones. During this process, they made sure that they never compromised performance quality, ensuring that you still get a high-quality Trevor James instrument. And for even more peace of mind, the Evo is double-checked by UK technicians to make sure everything is in working order. This sort of attention to detail is rarely found on saxophones twice the price of the Evo saxophones, so to have this sort of assurance is truly breathtaking!

Achieving a consistent performance

The high-quality pads and springs used on the Evo are essential for producing a consistently pure tone. The pads create a good seal around the tone holes which helps with tuning and overall note production. They have a significantly longer lifespan than standard pads which are often found on student saxophones. This overall quality enables a superior, more reliable tone for a much longer period.

To help with note production, the pads have metal reflectors. Perfect for producing a clear and bright tone with an easy response, these reflectors are ideal for producing your first notes. But a saxophone's pads are only good if the mechanism uses proper springs. Because of this, Trevor James uses professional-grade blue steel needle springs for the entire mechanism. Not only do these last longer than cheaper springs, but they also allow for a much smoother playing action.

Everything you need

Included with the TJ Evo saxophone is a lightweight case. On the outside of the case, you will find handles on the side and backpack straps at the back. There is also a large zipped compartment on the front of the case to store all of your accessories. The inside of the case has been specifically moulded to fit Evo soprano saxophone. This moulded interior is then covered with a black soft-touch fabric that won't damage the finish of your instrument. At the front of the case, you will find a large compartment which is ideal for storing your wax, pull-through, or any other accessories. Also included with the TJ saxophone is a mouthpiece and ligature so you can start playing straight away.
