I inherited a Conn 10m tenor sax. my grandfather would teach me to play but unfortunately never got around to it due to his health. your videos help a lot to learn to play the sax!

I strongly recommend the Yamaha YAS 280.

The pink one looks good😀👍🏼 But no, stay away!

60 USD an hour average?? Consider myself lucky to only spend 16 USD a month to practice sax.

I’m in 6th grade and just got my Alto sax 😊

I am so excited for sax

HEY! I know you!

Thanks

Great advice Jeremy! One conflict I'm having as a beginner is that I'm renting a Selmer SAS201 Student Alto Sax. It looks and plays very well, and the rent to own price is very fair. However, I don't want to put all that money into a sax and still have "just" a student, beginner level sax when I could put the money one time into say a Yamaha 62 III, or Yanagisawa AWO2. I see no reason to have two saxes instead of one excellent one. However, like you, and my wife say...."It's the Indian, not the arrow."

Great tips! I'm 3 weeks in and I'm sure I did all of those mistakes at first being self-taught. Gradually though,, through your excellent videos, with much to learn, I'm refining my tone to something more pleasant.

How much money have you made promoting this piece of crap? The alto saxophone sounds like a pungi. *Shame on you.*

I started on bari my freshman year of high school (technically) but I had a little experience on alto, and that made playing tenor my junior year SO much easier.

What is the fingering for Bb flute fingerings?

I'm lusting over a Super action series 2 right now. It comes with the plated neck and a sold silver neck. I'm guessing that was a trend.

Here in NZ we also get ripped off by Yamaha. Their instruments are thousands of dollars dearer here than in Oz! I get around this by buying in Melbourne when I visit my son there!

my man can't stop smiling lol. Great video :)

I cant get a tutor so you’re the only one saving me out here, tysm 😊

The bad thing is that the mic, someday clouvpcal make a mic with clip and battery operated (not built-in battery)

Whenever I hear saxophone played by beginners, it sounds too much like clarinet.

I’ve just bought a brand-new alto saxophone, but when I hold down the top finger on the left it does not sound like an B, instead it sounds like a B when I’m not pushing down any fingers ?

It’s also hard to play trombone darker for example due to self distortion generating higher harmonics. To play trombone darker you need larger volumes of slower air to push the as much energy to the lower harmonics as possible to counteract self distortion.

I connect saxophone with sophistication, melancholie, vibing, relaxing, enjoying some good dinner with wine, suit and night driving reteo motorcycle or a car

What kind of mouthpiece does he use?

A few years ago, as my son was getting into 6th grade beginners band, he wanted to play the alto saxophone. I did allot of research that kept leading to Jean Paul and their AS-400 student alto saxophone. I decided to buy it. My son played it through the 6th and 7th grade and he loved it. This year, he was told to upgrade to a professional saxophone. I thought of Jean Paul first so I decided to buy the new AS-860 10th Anniversary edition. He says it's much better with smoother, quicker responsiveness, nicer tone quality and he says it just feels better in his hands. He said he'll be more then happy with this saxophone for years to come. This is a great, very beautiful instrument and sounds so amazing. Oh yea, and they have a professional sax technician check and set up every single sax they send out and email your technicians sound check of your instrument. Great customer service as well. Thank you Jean Paul! Very satisfied with this purchase.

I appreciate what you are doing, but to be honest it is unbearable to watch when you talk to me as if i was a 6 years old kids with special needs. Most of you audiance are not.

Wow. I’m in Canada and I have a choice between a 26 in almost new condition for $1000 (they say replacement value of $2000) that is a two hour drive away, or a 23 also in good condition but with some cosmetic wear and tear, from a friend locally, so much less than $1000. As a beginner (ex clarinet player…) I should go with the 23. Right?

That’s great but a China made horn does not stay in adjustment. Also some Tawainese horns. If you play a lot it’s going to be out of tune. That’s what u pay for is effortless tuning and resilience.

He reminds me of the friend of the main character in a cheesy 80s movie.

Is Stagg a215 good sax?

Sax McFarlane

Very nice

Excellent product BUT that velcro clip SUX ! It was constantly falling off ! So I made sure it would never fall off again . I super glued that velcro clip together . Problem solved it has never fallen off since ...

Is a Bundy Selmer good? Anybody know?

Similar...but...Midrange isn't the best for a test. High notes , low notes. Differing volume..That being said, the Selmer sounds richer, fuller.

To SaxTuiti0n host, Hi. Which sax would be best for me - Alto or Tenor to get if the $6oo.oo difference would not be a problem, which should I get as a beginner, as an adult? Which would be more functionally the best, all around? Alto?

Great, thorough review! Sound good.

Thanks

WoW! That’s Awesome! Thank You so much!

They have 20 bucks sax now on aliexpress , wonder how they sound like

Hi i have an used yas22 . How is it compared with the yas23 ?

thank you for this video!! btw you look like Seth McFarlene the creator of family guys which is a compliment :DD

Hi Mr. Jeremy, it's already around 1 year since i learn saxophone (alto) and i already bought my first high baffle mouthpiece (Barkley pop kustom 7) and i already use it for 3 months but why my tone still dark even when I'm using bright mouthpiece? Thanks

Great review mate.

What about CHROMATIC notes?

Thank you! I have my exam in an hour and this helped me a lot!

What mouthpiece do you think it will give us the easiest and best sound on this Yamaha?

Hello Jeremy, You are an exceptionally gifted teacher. I played alto from 5th through senior in high school, just a semester of bari in college-not enough , what a blast!! -once the pads were seated properly in a shop. I walked away from sax, and have focused on Baroque recorders (a very easy transition from sax) and piano and some other things, and was content to be done with the saxophone. But it was an old friend I had abandoned, and it was finally time to reconnect. Your videos have encouraged and inspired me, and have enabled this step. Thank you.

Thanks!
