How to Buy an Alto Saxophone
Finding that perfect musical instrument that will match your quality requirements at a limited budget will not be walk in the park. It will take some time and legwork to find the instrument best suited for you.
An alto saxophone is classified as a woodwind instrument as it produces musical notes when air is blown through a nozzle when you press the saxophone keys on the body.
Buying a new alto saxophone requires a series of decisions before the official purchase.
Many suggest you buy from a regular music store rather than an online store. It is recommend to purchase in a shop popular with saxophonists or else you may purchase a saxophone that makes it painful to play the instrument. However, if the online shops can provide money back guarantee for returned purchases, then they definitely have the better option.
When buying an alto saxophone in singapore, you have two options too. You can buy either buy a used one or a new saxophone. Let us discuss about the options now:
A used sax in singapore will cost around $400 to $600. As for the new ones, they can be bought for over $1,000, so the price difference is quite huge.
When upgrading a saxophone in Singapore, a saxophonist must be ready to shell out hundreds of dollars. It may be challenging for a novice to purchase from them as it is more difficult for you to invite your teacher to assist you during the purchasing decision. In addition, you can only chose from one option, rather than select a range of saxophones within the shop. This will considerably reduce the number to choose from.
Stores generally allow the testing of musical instruments by prospective customers but if you have no experience with it, you might not be able to tell its quality accurately. Besides, a used saxophone might have initial engravings by the previous owner. This can cause problems when you also want to personalize it with your own engravings. Check for evidence of advanced wear and tear on the saxophone, if there is rusting, do not consider buying it.
A new sax in singapore comes with new functionalities, improved aesthetics, year- long store warranty and repair support. It will serve you efficiently for more than two years, afterwhich, you will need to upgrade to a better sax or a more feature enhanced model. Normally, they range more than $ 1,000. As the piracy rate increases, make sure that you buy a sax from an authorized shop. You will find that the newer saxophones have gold tone rods and keys.
Or request for an official certification from the saxophone manufacturer. Another way to make sure is to ask a teacher or somebody very knowledgeable to help you choose your instrument. Finally, make sure that saxophone bought is an established brand in the market.
Selmer Bundy and Yamaha YAS-21 – YAS-23 are reputed to be the best saxophones around. Some other Alto Saxophones good for novices are Keilwerth, Mauriat, Yanagisawa, Cannonball, Baptist Hollywood Winds and LA Sax.
