professional calibre Alto Saxophones from
Selmer (Paris)
Yanagisawa

Selmer (Paris) altos are centered in sonic quality and offer state-of-the art features. Serie III is the reference standard of saxophones and is unsurpassed.

Yanagisawa altos are very close in sound to Selmer Paris Serie III horns and not as edgy as Yamaha YAS-875EX horns. They are very well made and are offered in 2 levels. Remarkably, both pro (A901, A902) and enhanced pro (A991, A992) models sound alike and it's because they use the same bodies. Also offered in "Silver-Sonic" (A9930, A9933, A9935, A9937) Solid 95% Pure Silver versions.
