Finally got mine today! I was amazed to feel and see how great the quality of the horn is in person. I used to have a black nickel-gold Mendini by Cecelio MAS-BNG alto sax which recently after 5-6 years came to its death due to its somewhat mediocre build quality and mostly the cheap garbage case it came with. I must say the quality of the Jean Paul case AMAZES me, it feels like the case a pro horn would come in. Overall I guess after 4 years, the Jean Paul AS-400 is still the king of the $600 class (although it used to be a little shy of $500 5 years ago). If you can’t afford the Conn Selmer Better Sax EAS-112, then the next best thing is the Jean Paul AS-400. Who knows maybe Jay agrees with my statement, hopefully 😂😅

Master number 11s do it best! He's certainly no exception.

Thank you for this ; I love this guy , his energy and his story .He inspires me to keep going for it .

This is the most advanced specificized micro-managed plumbing I've ever seen! :P

I recommend you look at some of Patrick Bartley's playing

I know you call the current model bettersax classic. Will there be other models in the future like bettersax vintage, bettersax jazz, or bettersax modern?

50 years later, I'd say that it was worth the money.

i have a 1971 bundy alto its not that great

Danke für das tolle Video!

Tolles Video! Danke.

Bro I can’t wait until Christmas when my Bari arrives so I can learn this!!!

All your life...just saying

When is the BetterSax tenor coming to Amazon?! I will defiantly buy once it’s available on Amazon, also amazing job on the better sax stuff and the website is super nice, I’ve bought your jazz cut reeds for tenor sax and they are amazing!

Man! Talk about the luck! $300 for a Mark VI? What a deal!

Forever

What a gorgeous man and one of the hottest sax players around. I’m so blessed to have met him and watched a few live shows in person. ❤ You go Michael!!!!

I’ve wanted a soprano forever and I can’t wait for when that releases!

YESSS BETTER SAX BARI IS HERE BABY!!!

I tried both the Supreme and the Signature tenors for about a week and they are NOT the same at all, they both sound great tough but, definitely not the same saxophones. As much as I like both the Supreme won big time that I purchased one and waiting for its arrival, I know they are pricey but try negotiate the price, I got mine at 20% discount, there is reason why the Supreme is sold out, more desirable.

😂😂 everybody does that aleady !!!

I have a YTS-62 tenorsax from 1984. Still a very good sax ! Still that warm sound. With an Otto Link metal mouthpiece. Say hi from the Netherlands.

Xin hỏi giá bán bao nhiêu

Just listen to Michael brecker every day...he might get into your playing

If your serious ..we never stop learning...its a life long vocation

good morning thank you for your help Do you know a good tablet for playing alone backing track?

Outstanding lesson!! Please tell us where you got that “red neck strap” from!!! My son is going to a college where the school color is predominantly red! Ty!

I definitely can't wait to pick one up soon and can't wait to see a better sax soprano or bari soon! 😁🎷🎶

Great stuff!!! 👏👏

Three hours long tones 😂😂😂 nobody believes that.

Well it has a sax key setup, apart from that it's not good, just blow a "real" horn.

Great for practicing finger work, dynamics, and articulation. You can exercise your embouchure, but no perfect it. Responsiveness is also very good. Occasionally squeaks a high pitch/screech. You can connect to your mobile phone and hear your phone music through the TS2 headset which is great for practicing silently. The main concern is that the bluetooth connection requires Location permission. This may be a privacy issue since other bluetooth apps don't require Location permission. The other problem is that you cannot pair while in airplane mode while earbuds, watches, and other BT devices can. When flying, you must pair TS2 to your phone before you activate airplane mode. Alternatively, you can use one ear to listen to one of the earpieces connect to the TS2 and your other ear to use one of your bluetooth earbuds. You will not be able to change any settings without being connected to your phone app. I have reached out to Odisei several times with no explanation other than you need Location permission.

BetterSax Sticker?

A whole lifetime just like any other musical instrument. You never stop learning in music.

Well it's not a new invention, just another saxophone built in G 🙂

What about the baffle's? Are all the ones you revied curved?

I used to put a towel in my school alto sax to practice..

Going from trombone, I started playing saxophone in concerts after about 3 months!

About 10,000 hours should do?

As a middle school band director, I wouldn’t use the “traditional” band method books if I was teaching a private student. They work well to get an overfilled room of 10 to 12 year olds on a variety of instruments with no musical experience to play music. But, they are all lacking in terms of delivering the best instruction for each individual instrument.

How good do you want to get?

And theirin lies the problem which explains why i have no students particularly ADULTS. everyone wants the six month plan where i show them how to play careless whisper and kenny G ( who i have no issue with btw) . but what so i know. I have only been playing for 40 years. 👀🙄

Hello, I wanted to buy the Lessons from Eric Alexander and add to the car the rest of course, but for some reason the code that you provided does not work, so I have not buy it yet

Tips: 1-Fix tour tone (with your throat) 2-Work Articulation(legado, short, stacatto) 3-Dinamics (FF, pp) 4-Fingering (read the notes, think them, put the fingers, and later play it) 5-All this trying a good sound with the correct air (i play classic normally so i need Round sound and fast cold air)

Curious what diminished scale works over a repeating ii V vamp? Do you play the half/whole starting in the root of the V chord ?

I went through 6 years of school and two years of private study and nobody ever showed me the pentatonic scale. In hindsight, I feel ripped off.

WISH i HAD PAID ATTENTION TO A COUPLE OF GOOD TEACHERS I HAD BACK IN BKLYN NYC.. i ALSO LEARNED A LOT FROM JAMEY ABERSOLD WHO MANY YEARS AGO OPENED UP THE WAY TO PLAY & STUDY JAZZ. But there is no substitute for listening to the great players and picking up a few of their licks .. just sayin' Bobby G.

Fantastic ! 2 thumbs up !👍👍

I started teaching myself 2 years ago, helps I’ve been playing church organ and keyboards since I was a toddler. I record my own backings on my keyboard and then play along by ear on my sax. Recently did careless whisper which was my goal 😂😂😂 not perfect but hey ho 😂😂

I have a tenor saxophone. I’m currently on my guitar and piano journey and it’s going well, could be better if I made more time, but I have a tenor saxophone 🎷 and i really want to start learning. I will aim to add it to my schedule around fall even if for 3hrs a week. It’s something. Thanks for the great videos.
