Soprano Sax
 

My son plays the sax, keyboards, etc.. alot by ear.

He's got a student quality alto sax, a decent intermediate quality tenor sax (both yamaha's I believe). He's now wanting a soprano sax. I'm looking for a middle of the road rich sounding sax and I'm not getting much help from the local music stores. They either want to sell me student models or $4000 custom models.

Any sax players out there?

lil2rich plays the skin flute..

dont take this the wrong way, but its because they can tell you dont play and they want to take advantage of this.

i know too many people that make their living off of moms trying to surprise their kids, especially around christmas times.

they make more money because mom doesnt know the first thing about instruments, pricing etc. (not saying thats whats happening here) but i do have friends who work in big music stores here and thats from experience. worst than vultures.

:winkwink:

Yamaha makes the student models, plus they offer some good semi-pro stuff, too, from what I can remember.

Unison makes pretty good pro stuff at not a completly ridiculous price. A soprano sax made by them could run you 1200 to 2000 bucks.

i feel tricked :(

i read "Soprano Sex"

I thought the same thing, thats why I clicked.

I did look at Ebay, but that doesn't tell me a thing about sound quality.
