    • Stunning!
I was motivated by watching Jay Metcalf's videos and wanting to try something new I decided to buy a saxophone. I ordered one from another company and it got lost in shipping. I'm so glad it did and I decided to spend the extra money and ordered this one instead. I have no idea what I'm doing but this instrument is absolutely beautiful. I was floored when I followed Jay's instructions and got a beautiful sounding note on my first attempt. The case is gorgeous also! I'm excited to start this journey.....watch out Lisa Simpson here I come! ... show more

    • Good sax , good value
First impressions are that it seems to be well built. I am re learning the sax after 50 hrs . I rented a alto sax a few months earlier to get started. This sax plays much better. Low notes are easier to hit. My only complaint is the ligature is to small. The better sax reed bearly fit. Vandoren reeds not at all. Shipping was fast and arrived in good shape. ... show more

    • First Impressions
Very well packaged. The case is very good quality. Love the finish and overall condition of sax is excellent. New to alto sax but all component/parts function properly. I'm use to playing a straight soprano so ergonomics are a bit strange initially. To be expected. The missing star in my rating is because of the mouthpiece and ligature. No markings on the mouthpiece so not clue to what it is. Both mouthpiece and ligature have a cheap feel to them. I think my soprano mouthpiece weighs more than this alto. It plays, but see an upgraded mouthpiece in my future. My last issue is the retaining strap on the case that limits how far you open the case. It will only open 90 degrees. When you remove the sax body the case flops over spilling out the contents. Glad I removed the neck from the case first. The body and neck are very good and I'm sure with some time and practice we will become good friends. Excellent instrument at a great price for sure. ... show more

    • Nice instrument
Appears to be a well built alto sax. Fits and finish have no apparent flaws. Sound is great when played. Keys feel good. The only complaint I have is the ligature. It is the cheapest thing I have seen. Replace it with one of better quality.

This saxophone exceeds my expectations. I was pleasantly surprised that it played perfectly from top to bottom right out of the box.The intonation is excellent. It also comes with a high quality mouthpiece. I plan on using this horn for my gigs. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this saxophone to students or professionals.It’s a great bang for your buck. ... show more

    • Great alto sax
As designed by Mr. Metcalf - of Bettersax - the alto plays beautifully. He vouched for it and demonstrates it on You-tube. I am an older person taking up saxophone (and I also purchased the Bettersax tenor) and when I saw/heard the demonstration of the horn - I knew that it was time to try it. I am very happy with the instrument - it looks as good as it plays and I am happy to own it. Bundy manufactures it and it went through a 40 point quality check at Sweetwater Music. Overall, short of going to an instrument dealer - I felt better that the horn was vouched for by a professional who teaches and is an expert in saxophone mechanics (Mr. Metcalf). My trust was well placed and I have confidence in the instrument - now I have to go practice.... I will enjoy this, thank you Bettersax team and especially Mr. Metcalf. ... show more

I have an aristocrat saxophone. Old and seen better days. It had a funky C note that I just couldn't get around to playing with. So I bought the Jean Paul sax per Jay's review. Ok for the price. When the better sax became available, I bought it. But I found out during extensive practicing that the key is interfering with playing. The D# key (see the pictures) I don't know if it is just mine or they are all like this. Beware if you have big hands. The Price is good. The look is good and the tone is good. I just can't practice too long without it hurting my finger. ... show more
