I got a really good used student alto about 8 years ago for $210 at Sam Ash. Still plays really well except the low B and Bb, but I think that might be because I haven't gotten it serviced in at least 4 or 5 years

I play alto sax and my band directors tell just the trombones to play. they sound way different then the plastic one

My god but you are so irritating!!

I think i have this stand, it is very much better for altos than tenors

👍

Piccolo trumpet???!?!? 🎺

My sister was a multi blue ribbon gold medal winner from solo and ensemble. she had 10 on her band sweater and jingled when she walked. fabulous flute player. I am brass, trumpet, French horn, tuba/sousaphone, baritone, alto and soprano saxes, bells, piano.

Ooooooo...Wuhan COVID reeds!

My nephew is a band director here in Tennessee. I'm going to send him your video.

I was actually looking in temp for the heck of it to see what they had on there. I considered getting an alto or soprano sax from there just for fun. I once had an LA Sax soprano and that thing was awesome. I'm primarily a brass player, just learned sax way back when I got braces in case I couldn't at trumpet anymore. But I digress...I sold my soprano sax because it deserves to be played more than I did. I miss my saxes. I could play careless whisper.....

Don't worry I am a RUclipsr

Just got recommended this video, and feels like a "fool me once" moment, saw the Slade sax from Amazon in the bettersax videos, ended up giving them TWO tries by replacing the first bad one. The second one was just as bad for completely different reasons. Either these RUclipsrs are getting some deals to push these or they are very lucky but I feel these instruments are worse for beginners than anything because they don't know if it's the sax or their lack of skills causing the issues and they develop some bad habits, just my 2 cents

Damn dude are you sure you know how to play the saxophone?

Hi! As a saxophonist, I have a little wizdom to share. As a general rule, a smaller saxophone requires more presice manufacturing, as a small difference in the gaps can lead to a bigger difference in tuning. By this logic, you should get a baritone. Also, they are REALLY fun!

As a Japanese, thank you for visiting Japan and entertaining us with your videos. I'm looking forward to watching a video of bamboo reeds.😊

Hey Teach, rather than suck a new reed to a play-ready condition, I soak them in like a double-shot sized glass for an hour or two; I'm allergic to factory residue, but it's also a standard method of prep. I enjoyed the review, but sticking with my curved Yani... But for the right person the price is unbeatable for what you get...

Simmons pads behind 👍

Hope you do oboe soon, if so I’d reccomend yinfente! I got one to try oboe and I don’t know about others’ experiences, but my oboe has been amazing and I’ve only ever had one problem which was easily fixed. It even got me into district band and a state band audition (super soon and hoping I do well!)

this dude reminds me of Dexter.... the good parts.. not the whole murderer part

You need to do tuba I play and no one talk about it and I want to see a cheap one

I play tendor and I’m better. I’m 10. 4th grade. Dat just sad😢

Ben Affleck's much cooler baby brother!!! 😂 I've been resisting the urge to say that since I discovered this channel.

Desole manque une demonstrartion et moins de blanla 👎🏻

You should test a cheap flugelhorn, ive seen them and i always wonder if theyll be worth it

When it comes to brass mendi cecillo or whatever it’s called is rather decent. My brother plays a Euphonium from that company and it sounds just fine.

I love living in the future some times 🎉

17:30 i have had the same issue but with bari sax its sooo annoying

I want a bassoon

3:44 I believe you're in C Major. I dunno, my perfect pitch isn't working properly

Had one of these for my freshman marching band season when I was in highschool and I have to say it played well for the first few weeks and suddenly it was problem after problem. I took it to get repaired twice before I basically turned the thing into an overpriced football😂😂. It let me down time after time for two months. Just spend the money for a lower priced sax or rent a student horn if you plan to use your instrument at all

Yeah you don't need to write band director reviews. Those of us who were band kids can identify you almost immediately. Is it possible all dand directors are the same....?

This looks like a fun thing to play around with, but as I'm just a beginner (as in, zero knowledge of playing an instrument), it' hard to justify spending $300+ on it at this point. If I master the dollar store recorder, then maybe. However, one thing I was wondering is if it can output to Bluetooth audio devices, like speakers and headphones, or is it only an instrument to phone/computer connection? Being able to play over headphones would make practicing much less annoying to those around me.

Gold is a soft metal so in a way it is fake [the neck strap]

Seen lots of people talk smack about these cheap instruments because they're hard to repair, but I've seen what it would cost to fully refurbish an old clarinet I bought at an estate sale...you could buy like 4 of these things for the cost of repairing one good one.

I want to learn to play a wind instrument. What of the classical wind instruments if cheaper (on average)?

Its as good as my moms 40yr old silver armstro g.

all these instruments you blow into are so gross

Change my pitch up... Queue The Prodigy...

Yes

My friend who is a senior in marching band bought her saxophone for $200. It works good and sounds like all the other saxophones in the halftime show, fight song, amd more. And she let me try the sax and it was fine.

I can hear a little difference in the note you made at the very end. But the rest sounded the same.

that octave button is pretty saxy😅

the rain stick was terrible. if you want a super easy digital rain stick, just plug an iphone on airplane mode and do not disturb into a speaker with a sound effect app and rain sound. hand it to a kid and say press the button when i point at you.

There’s a brand of Indian made saxophones from a company called sai musical and I’m DYING to see it up close!! They look so funky and would be a really interesting conversation about the rising influx of Indian musical instrument factory’s!! The saxophones are almost guaranteed to be entertainingly bad as Trent Hamilton did a few videos on his worlds cheapest corner and trumpet and mini sousaphone videos

If you ever see a Selmer Paris or Yanigasawa sax for like 490 dollars brand new it’s probably one of these horns with a fake label on it, also the mouthpieces they usually include are bad and you can improve your tone 170% with just a different mouthpiece. Usually the mouthpieces that come with with saxes are jazz style.
