Nice sax, I’m an adult starting to playing journey. I rented one for a couple of months and wanted something permanent. My only issue is i bought a silver on but it doesn’t look that like silver. It’s more of a silver gold mix. Not 100% what i expected. it sounds very good!
I can’t put into words how happy she is with her new Soprano Saxophone! Even her instructor loves it, he helped her properly tune it so she is playing it with correct tones.
She did say that the reeds of course were RICO and they are not as good as Vandoren but we will get those instead! I did wish the case to be 100% hard not the soft case with the hard shell so I was disappointed in that aspect but she didn’t care and liked that it has a strap to put over her shoulder since now she has her Alto Saxophone to carry too!
Grateful the shipping required a signature which gave me piece of mind it wasn’t going to just be dropped off when delivered!
The instrument itself is absolutely beautiful live the anniversary edition with the two tones! We will have real mother of pearl inserted in the keys by the music shop we use in town, he does amazing work and that will bring the value up considerably!
Buen día
Realmente estamos encantados porque fue uno de los regalos que le dimos a nuestra hija 👸☺️👸ella está muy fascinada le encantó su sorpresa que le teníamos preparada gracias a Felipe por ayudarlos excelente persona 🙏🏻
I purchased this 2 weeks ago. If there's anyone out there looking for a saxophone that isn't a student model and don't wanna spend a small fortune for an instrument, this is the one you're gonna want to buy. This is an absolutely gorgeous horn. When I open the case to practice, I get genuinely excited to play. In top of the wonderful looks, it sounds amazing. I couldn't ask for more from this purchase. Along with the play test video and super great customer support, Jean Paul has my business. Thanks
My son is enjoying his new saxophone. It sounds beautiful!
I found the saxphone's sound to be different the the student model who's sound I LOVED. It's more focused and subdued. The key work is incredible, fluid and responsive. However, I found the altissimo to be difficult to sound. I tried a different neck, a Yamaha V1 - and the sound opened up and altimissmo became much easier to sound. So I had to return the Sax in hopes they develop the neck a little further in a future model, or offer a different neck option with the purchase. I just ordered a student model in silver to see if it re-creates the amazing experience I had with the brass colored model, which might be the best tenor sax I 've every played --- I sold it to a friend, because I only play silver horns. DEFINETLY worth a try!! It can match the performance of much more expensive horns.
I love it so, getting back into playing. With this horn I'm more confident hitting notes in the upper registers. The slotting is good and solid especially the notes on top of the staff. I'm happy and will suggest Jean Paul to anyone wanting a pro level horn on a budget.
The JeanPaul student alto is amazing! The build quality is solid and the horn feels quite comfortable. Although I do think that the spatula/roller keys are a little difficult to reach. Hopefully that is fixed in the future. My neck cork was a little too short but it will do for now. The intonation is almost perfect and the horn provides a dark, resonant and full sound. The key action is smooth and responsive. The pads sealed nicely too. The bell engraving design is pretty and makes the horn feel more sophisticated. The case is pretty good and I like the addition of the backpack straps. Not many student Saxes come with these features at this low of a pricepoint. I would definetely recomend this Saxophone to beginers or intermediate players.
Not sure why it took so long for me to get the item but I am happy that it actually works and fits correctly. Kudos for that. I believe the price needs a bit of adjustment since it is just 1 part. Thank Goodness that is the only part of the trumpet that was missing.
Sound and quality are good, especially for the price - got it in silver which is really nice looking
I need to talk to someone with authority in your bussiness as we recieved a yellow gold sax instead of a Silver Alto Sax. And we have one VERY disappointed young lady!
It's been over 20 years since I last played and wasn't sure how it would go to pick up again. But this sax is a dream--both to look at and play. Wish I'd done this sooner!
Thoroughly please with the horn I received 4 days ago. The sound is rich and vibrant. Even the mouthpiece that came with it was great as a starter until my upgraded one was delivered. The only thing I miss as a personal preference is not be able to remove the neck while putting on and taking off the mouthpiece. On the other hand, it's pretty nice having the saxophone as a one-piece. Love it and am very pleased with the purchase!
This is a great soprano,was in the market for a Yamaha soprano, because I have a
Yamaha alto, that plays really well.
I have abandoned my search for Yamaha
Soprano, because this jean Paul SS860 is
So good that I don't believe that any Yamaha soprano can play better ,this is the best soprano for the money.
I also a student curved soprano from Jean Paul, nice soprano, but the ss860 is so much better 200%
Thanks Jean Paul
I bought this saxophone to replace a Selmer student sax that I bought decades ago while playing in a small local cover band, to facilitate the recent resurgence of my playing passion. The playability and big sound of the AS-860 should make it easy for me to develop into a good sax player.
The mouthpiece provided seems adequate so far, however the ligature shipped with it is in my opinion a bad design and will be replaced. The key layout is comfortable and the action up and down the horn is very fluid and responsive. I opted for the brass finish, which is very attractive. The blue sandstone pearl key touches, along with the nicely etched decorations on the bell, give it an almost elegant appearance. At its current price point it is in my opinion a very comfortable value choice.
Fantastic instrument, faster then original scheduled delivery.
Thank you for making a gift being delivered just in time for the holidays.
I received an extra small neck strap which was useless. I returned it. I don't know if I will receive the proper size.
This music stand is well made and light. Would recommend it for any new student.
Love the sound, just have to practice & become familiar with each note!
What a pretty saxophone and it plays beautifully. I will have to track down the videos that I read would be sent to me. Lots of welcome emails but I haven’t found any that included the pro playing my horn, etc, that I read about before purchase. Would kind of like proof that those hesitant low notes are my skill and not the instrument. 😂 This gorgeous instrument can’t be beat at this price point.
I'm glad you offer this service. Where I live, packages are delivered in a location for the whole neighborhood to see, as well as those passing through. It gave me peace of mind.
