  • Superior quality at this price point
Size: Alto
After exhaustive research I chose the Herche and I'm convinced it was the right choice. Not only a very beautiful, it's solid and tight throughout all the keys. Tone is excellent and consistent and key function is light and smooth. This is a perfect saxophone for beginners, especially at it's price point, but I'm confident that more advanced players would appreciate it as well. I was impressed with the accessories the set came with considering the quality that it possesses and found they all work very well, though you may want to upgrade the neck strap if you need extra padding for your neck, as I did. The case is fantastic and also very well made, resembling the ones you'd expect to receive with a much more expensive instrument. Even though this is nearly a solid 5 star review, I later opted for the Yamaha 3c & 4c, which made this sax even better since this was my first reed instrument. Finally, the 3 year warranty and 1 year service really sends it over the top, well above anything else I was considering. Overall, 5 out of 5 and YES, I would definitely recommend the Herche over ANY other sax at around this price - even several hundred more! ... show more

  • Fantastic Alto Saxophone
Size: Alto
My other Saxophone got out of adjustment and I was not able to get it down to my repairperson to get it adjusted and figure out what was going on. This happened right in the midst of Orchestra season and rehearsals, so I could not do without my saxophone. I had been in the market for another one anyway - as a back up or something. I found this one,and I am here to say it has not disappointed. I LOVE IT! It has a dark, very rich tone to it. Very responsive, And so far, has proven to be of very good quality. So, it is my primary alto saxophone and the other one - once I get it to my repair person - will be my backup. I play multiple instruments and have been a professional flautist as well. I play oboe primarily in the Orchestra now, but periodically will be asked to play Sax when we have pieces for sax. So, yes, this is a solid alto saxophone. ... show more

  • Not ready to play when shipped, but good value overall
Size: Alto
The tone on this sax is pretty good, and this is a good student instrument for the price. Some pads were not seated properly, but with some adjustment it was able to be played. As it shipped it was not playable.

  • Stuck G Key - Replacement sax is great!
Size: Alto
Right out of the box the sax looked beautiful. Took a few minutes to set up the reed and mouthpiece; not too fond of the ligature but it works. However, when I started working the keys I noticed the G key was stuck closed. The stopper was not stuck to the hole; something about the mechanism was preventing it from releasing naturally. I boxed everything back up and returned it to Amazon. They received it yesterday but I'm still waiting for a refund. Overall, a less-than-good experience. UPDATE: The return went smoothly, and a I ordered a replacement sax. This one was gorgeous and worked perfectly (as far as I can tell - I’m a newbie). I’m in the process of familiarizing myself with the instrument - and avoiding that high-pitched squeak! - but so far I really like it. ... show more

  • Looks and feels high-end.
Size: Alto
Beautiful horn, nicely set up and no issues out of the box. I do have a interesting concern that I would like to ask everyone that has purchased one of these horns and the company itself... I noticed that when you're holding it in the playing position... The bell is tilted to the right. I don't have a problem with that because I play with it a little angled to the left anyway but has anybody else noticed this? Is this by design? ... show more

  • Great Instrument!
Size: Alto
A classically trained violinist, I'm now taking saxophone lessons as an adult student. I am very pleased with the tone, the quality of the instrument, and the fact that it came with everything I needed to hit the ground running. Very reasonably priced as well.
