 Rating:  - So far so good--very pleased for the priceI purchased this for my 9-year-old son who is just starting sax as it was less expensive than renting it. I was concerned whether the quality would be sufficient and specifically asked him to verify with the band teacher that it would work. Son has happily informed me that the instructor is using this instrument for demonstration and that she said it has a very good tone. I'm not sure how it will survive the test of time (so far there was an issue with the case tearing, ... Read More Rating: - Really cool Saxophone for the priceI bought this for my nephew who started his music lessons last month. He is really excited to get this as he says it is playing great so far. He has promised to play it at our next family gathering. Thanks for making someone really happy without breaking bank in this environment. Rating:  - Look ElsewhereI purchased this sax for my 12 yr old son last year and am very disappointed by the overall quality. Although my son has played the sax for over a year, he struggled with it from day one and it wasn't until his private tutor (a professional musician) gave it a whirl that we realized that the notes were consistently flat.

When it arrived it looked fine and played well, but about a month later the low C key breaks then the G key pad stays open a little all the time. So I think to myself and sy, " It's probably nothing and can be easily fixed". So I take it to my band teacher and he sends it off to a shop. When they finnaly get it we find out that the repair will cost more than a third more than it costs! ... Read More Rating:  - pretty good for an off brandI have a student with one of these models. His mother had bought him this instead of getting a rental, which would have been $500 or more a year. His instrument has nice projection and is very free blowing. Intonation is not perfect, but it is reasonable. It's really quite good for an off brand, many of which are out and out junk. He'll need a better one come high school but, for now, this one will do.
