Description
Developed by the BetterSax team over the course of almost 3 years, the Session Alto Saxophone was designed in the US by saxophonists for saxophonists. This commitment to understanding the needs of players is at the heart of what makes BetterSax products so special. Every Session saxophone is the result of meticulous craftsmanship and precision. The bells are skillfully hand-formed and hammered, the posts and keywork are individually hand-soldered, and each key is expertly hand-fitted and regulated for flawless action. Every horn is hand-engraved, carefully assembled, and inspected individually—not mass- produced on an automated factory line. After this process, they undergo a final thorough inspection to ensure every detail meets exact specifications. Only then are they placed in their cases and prepared for shipping, guaranteeing that each instrument meets the professional standards you deserve straight out of the box. The Session Alto is a true professional horn, delivering exceptional quality and performance for serious players. It’s designed to deliver a warm, resonant tone with fantastic projection and consistent intonation across the entire range. The ergonomics have been fine- tuned for smooth, comfortable playing, making it a reliable companion for long practice sessions, gigs, or studio work. Whether you’re playing jazz, classical, funk, or anything in between, this saxophone is built to perform at the highest level while remaining affordable. With premium finishes that look as stunning as they sound, the BetterSax Session Alto Saxophone offers an unbeatable combination of quality, tone, and value. If you’ve been searching for a horn that delivers professional results without the professional price tag, this could be the perfect fit.
