Jean Paul AS-400 Alto Saxophone - Golden Brass Lacquered

Great beginners saxophone. The Bag is very sturdy. The saxophone itself didn't need any adjustment or repairs before use. complete accessories. Will definitely be using this for a long time.

I’m just a beginner in sax but have some experience with recorders, harmonicas and whistles, Indian flute etc. This seems to be a lovely, sturdy and stable instrument with a mellow tone and at a very competitive price. The accessories are top quality as far as I can tell, including the carrying case and the mouth piece. I did use an extra Reed 2.0 strength instead of the 2.5 provided with it, however 2.5 seemed to be playable as well. The keys, pads and the levers all seem to be built and adjusted to very high standards. Grateful for this fantastic price and highly recommended

Great sax for beginners, easy action and good tone.

Estoy muy contento con mi saxo

J’ai acheté un JP alto gold plated … le son est médiocre … j’ai pas aimé pas en tout.Pour une première expérience ça peut aller mais il vaut mieux louer un meilleur sax pour une bonne expérience. Je l’ai vendu après quelques mois et je me suis loué un saxophone intermédiaire qui valait la peine

Impeccable presentation in the box...I was stunned to find a high- caliber mouthpiece and ligature included, plus a standard JP mouthpiece. Gorgeous and flawless looking...I was horrified yesterday when a Silver model arrived and I found it was used and fingerprints and white stain on the horn and a funky mouthpiece that had been used. and a broken neck bolt lying in the mess....Amazon is not to blame for these kind of things, they have no control over that..I soaked a quality reed and set up the mouthpiece..behold..the dream sound. slightly dark, which I love and have not been able to find till now. I didn't want to stop playing but I have dinner engagement tonight, anxiously I will await to continue this excitement...hope continues to go well...Jay's video was right on, comparing this horn to the much pricier Selmer, which he felt did not have the same depth as this horn..I agree.. I will continue to report as the days go by and I become more familiar with this instrument....two days later: today I tried out a different brand, in this price range..did not like it at all....also a third brand..pretty good..but lacking the depth and character of the Jean Paul..also none can compare with the quality, and not the run of the mill cases...this is a very fine case..the pro mouthpiece and ligature and cap and the gorgeous case alone would cost 200 dollars or more...d'addario mouthpiece..I have a few..all cost over 100 dollars...so I continue to hope this horn will hold up because Im quite sure, nothing under a 1000 ..can touch it....(im not on any brands side...only to satisfy myself and the sound im looking for...)..no one need agree with me, it's just my preference....today played along with a few friends..found out upper keys out of tune..different quality mouthpieces did not correct..also sounds a bit 'tinny' ..high notes...mmmmm don't like that...I take it to woodwind shop tomorrow and see if they can do something...

Es un buen saxo calidad/precio…No me gusta la boquilla que vino con (hay tantas que podrían preguntar lo que vas a querer tocar y de allí mandarte una boquilla que vaya a nivel del saxo!!) y no lleva para limpiar correctamente el interior del saxo después de su uso !! En lo que concierna el resto …un 10 Buena construcción , buen diseño, sonido de calidad,…
