Pros & Cons
Pros
As a professional musician i've had nothing but compliments on its clarity. The they’re beginner. Great buy for the beginner. For the price, this sax is amazing!
The intonation is what you’d expect from a $300 instrument. The tone is surprisingly warm and dark.
It’s a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Also it has metal resonators which is amazing. The technology is there to make these horn serious competitors to other entry level instruments.
Cons
Ligature fails after 3 uses. Reed separates from the mouthpiece. The lower c and d dt play properly because one of the key maybe dt fully close.
Also, the fuzzy rod should not be used. Looked like gelling *.
