I love my AS-400 saxophone, it’s beautifully finished with a rich tone and a fine sturdy carrying case. For the price, it can’t be beaten.

Great sound quality. Came to me tuned. Now I can finally get back into my music. Also the case is high quality. Love it!

Oh, if only I could play it as well as I know it can sound - or maybe as well as I used to play when I was much younger! But as I did then, I’ll keep practicing. Thanks for a great value.

Our First Trumpet

This is our first trumpet and he loves it. We did a search for one that was reasonably priced, but also had a good resale value, and buy, did we hit the jackpot. Our son sounds so good.
We are more than pleased.

Its a large bore and its sound is so beautiful I recommend so much! The only thing is that its a much bigger trombone so for starters it might be harder to get adjusted too

Great pro alto

I'm very impressed with the 10th anniversary alto by Jean Paul. It sounds amazing, feels great under the fingers, and has really good intonation! Besides looking amazing and being super responsive, it is extremely affordable! You've out done yourself, Jean Paul!

Worth its price

Purchased the AS660 based on Dr. Wally’s review. Definitely worth its price…from the finish, to the tightness of all moving parts, the design collaboration with Dr. Wally, and most importantly, the setup that Jean Paul did. Played right out of the box first day with the stock mouthpiece (like a 4C), the stock Rico H-ligature, and the stock D’Addario Rico reed 2.0. Came with a neck strap that is padded and quite decent.

Decided to try Rovner Dark, Legere American Cut 2.25 with the stock mouthpiece. Played well to my liking. The key-work and good intonation are spot-on easy. You don’t have to fight to make this sax sing well.

Jean Paul has been in business for quite some time now, and this is their third Alto Sax offering (after the student and pro models). I like their story and the AS660 is a testament to that. Coupled with Dr. Wally’s contribution/recommendation, I do think this is a pretty well thought-of, well-made saxophone for the price they are asking. Highly recommended.

Outstanding

I bought one and I love this Sax. It took a while to get, but it came well tuned so worth the wait.

New JP-400 Tenor saxophone

pretty nice saxophone, but they shipped an alto saxophone mouthpiece with it. Had to purchase a tenor Mouthpiece separately in time for my grandson's first day of school

I gave a 4 star because I was sent a silver neck receiver instead of a brass one. Customer was fine with it because he was without his horn and wanted to get back to his lessons.

Love it!

I'm an intermediate player, returning to the sax after 40yrs.
I'm guilty of buying based on aesthetics sometimes: I loved the look of the silver with black keys!
But when I played it, I was delighted at the warm sound and ease of playing all notes. It's way better than the Yamaha YS475II I was renting. After 6months I'm thankful I took the chance on Jean Paul.
Having trouble getting high E and F using alternate fingurings.

Excellent Student Sax (Especially for This Price!)

This is the best student sax I've had so far. It is very well built, and is super easy to play, pretty much no effort needed at all!! I highly recommend it, and if you are still on the edge about it, check out Jeremy Trezona's review on it, the only major engineering problem he mentioned has been removed, so it gets that 10/10 rating for the mythical "perfect" student sax!

The only thing I wish they'd included is a swab kit, but those can be easily bought on the side, so not that important, I just wish they included one, they had everything else!

So, long review short, get this sax!

Good product as a professional instrument was hard to get in tune

New to soprano sax

I wish you would have sent a diagram to explain what all the keys do and where they are. The neck strap was uncomfortable and replaced for a $10.00 one that is very comfortable.I only used one of the reeds, the synthetic reed is way better. As a business you may want to upgrade the items that you send out to new customers. After all you want them to come back to shop ,don't you !!

Extra squeaky?? Adjustment period?

She liked it at first but has noticed she squeaks a lot More with this one than her old rental. I’m hoping it is just an adjustment period for her mouth to learn airflow on a new mouthpiece??? Says buttons are a bit different than hers as well but that’s just a matter of getting used to new feel of them. Hoping it turns into a good investment and she continues to like it as much as she did on her old beat up, taped up, dented up rental we had!!!

Stopped working after 4 months

My son played this saxaphone for 4 months and one of the key pads stop sealing properly. I looked on the website and they only have a 90 day warranty and only a 30 day if you dont register the instrument online. I really think the quality should be better for $1700 dollars. And I can't believe they dont have a 2 year warranty like most places. I should've looked up the warranty before purchasing, that one's on me.

Reviewed from a new sax player

It seems like it works the top part of the soprano sax but not for the majority of the soprano sax 🇺🇸

Second Time Around

I recently purchased my second instrument from Jean Paul and the BG Sax Cleaning Swab Set came with it. With Jean Paul, every box has been checked. Their products are exemplary and their customer service is excellent.

intonation issues

Bought this for college plam keys notes and low notes are out of tune mid notes are alright but build quality is good.

Great trumpet at a great price

After purchasing a Jean Paul AS-400 sax a few months back and being so impressed with it, I decided to purchase a Jean Paul TR-330 trumpet, hoping to make some headway after trying to learn trumpet on a Tromba plastic horn and an inexpensive pocket trumpet, both with mixed results. When my Jean Paul trumpet came, the first couple of notes affirmed that I had made the right choice. The instrument seems quite well-made and the tone is far superior to my expectations, but quite aligned with the reviews I had been watching and/or reading. I am 70 years old and play multiple instruments, but I cannot image any good reason for a parent to rent an instrument for a child when a modest investment in a trumpet like the TR-330 can yield much more "bang for the buck" over the course of a student's school career. Or, if you are an adult beginner, I highly suggest you consider this option. As with my alto sax, the fit and finish, the case, and care in shipping are all top-notch.

Getting used to this instrument, pure joy!

Great product

I like this set a lot, use it instead of the swabs that come with new instruments.

Works but not as stable as I’d like

So far I just play at home so my alto case and other safe soft places are always handy and I’d rather not use this stand which does hold the horn but is not as stable as I’d like.

Service department win

The entire experience with the service department was amazing. I was able to explain my issue, send a video, and ask all the silly questions I could ever need.
They replied with a very supportive video with clear explanations and resolutions. 10/10. Thank you team!!
