Actually yes. I bought a "pro-level" saxophone just a moment ago, one I plan to keep for life. I spent a year playing an entry level sax that was good to get started, but now I plan to resale. I spent MONTHS searching through various saxophone brands and trying to determine which one to buy. The problem is "customer" reviews are 90% fake and there is so much hype and brand elitism, so I check forums and kept reading and reading...I could have thrown down 3,000 on a typical Yamaha, Selmer, or Yanigasawa and been done with it.
Eventually, I stumbled upon exactly what I wanted: A great deal. A new opened box pro-level Taiwanese horn, for under $1,000.
yr post made me think 'fucking hell I'd like to play the saxophone, I should buy one" and then remembered my friend gave me one 5 years ago and I've never used it. what a silly prick. wonder if it works
Damn. That hits me right in the gut. I've wanted to learn how to play the sax since Darkwing Duck was on TV when I was in secondary school. Never had the cash to spare, and even less now that we've got kids.
Comrade, if you have the mental space to do it, please toot that horn for me. :Care-Comrade:
