    • Great Sax! You won't be disappointed!
Configuration: Brass Style: Saxophone only
I have to admit I was very skeptical about purchasing this sax purely based on the price (which is pretty snobby on my end, I admit). I read all of the positive reviews on Amazon but when I asked my son's private teacher about this sax, he said he never heard of this brand. That made me nervous. I continued to research the Jean Paul and really could not find any negative reviews. In fact, I found a few sites that ranked the sax as a great starter sax for the money. One professional sax player even said that he would not hesitate using the Jean Paul as a stand-in for one of his other saxes that cost 5 times as much. Rather than purchasing the sax, I figured I would rent it from Amazon for one month so my son (and I) could try it out. First of all, the sax is beautiful! Secondly, this sax sounds SO much better is MUCH easier to play than his current high school band sax. He could not wait to take it to school now that he is in "concert band season". As a sax player myself, I gave it a spin and was very pleased with it. I am not a sax professional but I know what a decent sax should sound like. I would not hesitate to recommend this sax to anyone who is looking for a step-up sax for their child without having to break the bank. You can spend twice as much on another brand. However, unless your child is already playing professional gigs and is looking to go to the Berkley School of Music, why would you? You can give them a brand new sax that looks and sounds great! As a side note, one of the benefits of renting through Amazon is that your rental fees can be put toward the purchase of the instrument, which we definitely plan on doing. The only issue I have is that the sax that Amazon sends you may be previously used, as was the one that was sent to me. Since I am buying the sax, I considered returning it and then purchasing it brand new. However, now that my son is using the sax, I will not be able to pry it away from him to send it back. My only recommendation for Amazon is to consider knocking off a few dollars in situations when someone decides to purchase a previously used instrument at the end of the rental period. ... show more

    • Surprisingly good sound
Configuration: Brass Style: Saxophone only
My background: musician for over 30 years, started on a Vito alto sax when I was 11 and played it until I graduated high school, then switched to various string instruments I have a Vito sax (a brand that is not made anymore by Conn-Selmer but is the sound equivalent of a Yamaha YAS 23) that was bought new in 1989 and is quite banged up from being dropped a couple times (faulty case and marching band). It still sounds good but it needs an overhaul (pads and springs) before it's fully playable, so I bought this one in the interim to see if I still "had it." I was really pleasantly surprised by the sound quality of this alto sax straight out of the box! My first impression of this sax was not favorable. It's a weird color and the cork on the neck is really thin so I thought oh man how am I going to get this to tune properly? Surprisingly, though, I had it in tune within 30 seconds with hardly any adjustment to the mouthpiece on the neck (pro tip: middle C on a piano is a middle A on an alto sax if you don't have a tuner). Embouchure has a lot to do with whether your sax plays in tune, but If you don't have the mouthpiece situated on the neck properly, it will never be in tune. So move that mouthpiece around if you're constantly just a little flat or sharp (pull back if you're sharp and push it farther on if you're flat). Suffice to say I really didn't have high hopes for this cheap saxophone, but the sound quality is very, very good. It is equivalent to my Vito in sound (if not looks) and this is honestly a horn that a student could play all the way through high school if it holds up. The thinness of the cork on the neck makes me think that eventually the cork on the neck will have to be replaced because over time the cork smooshes down and I think you'll have to keep pushing it on farther and farther to get it to play in tune, but that is a cheap fix. I really don't know how it would hold up to everyday play for a student, but right now I'm very happy with this purchase. I would say if you want a horn that is really and truly for sure going to last your student for their whole school career, invest $1,205 right now in a Yamaha YAS 26, which you can also get on Amazon. That is going to be a horn that for sure will hold up, which this one I definitely can't guarantee. But if you don't know if your kid is going to play for long, it's worth the investment because you can turn around and sell this one used and still recoup most of your money. Saxophones cost about $75 a month to rent, so if your student plays for 9 months and quits, it's still cheaper in the long run to just buy this one outright rather than rent and return. ... show more

    • Fantastic saxophone for the aspiring beginner!
Configuration: Brass Style: Saxophone only
Simply put, the AS-400 is a finely-crafted saxophone that looks and sounds great. Others have praised Jean-Paul's work here for what they've created, so I won't go into further detail, but I do want to share something that you should keep a look-out for when buying this particular bundle. My sax did come with a reed, but after putting it in and trying to play, I found I had a hard time making noise. I found myself blowing very hard through the mouthpiece to even get the traditional buzzing sound one would expect to hear when playing the sax. I was discouraged, but tried again a few days later, thinking it was just me being a newbie. It continued again, so I decided to get an intro lesson at Sweetwater from a tutor. What he noticed right away was that the reed I was using wasn't even for saxophones. He said it was a clarinet reed. Looking at his sax, the reed he was using was much wider than mine, and after he gave me a free reed to play with, the noise I was making was immediate and sounded great. What a difference the correct reed makes! Make sure that when you purchase this sax bundle, the reed is appropriate for saxes and not clarinets. lol ... show more
