a beautiful new alto saxophone for an old guy

My new Jean Paul AS400S was delivered several days ago, a little faster than its predicted schedule. And the first thing out of its case, it's strikingly beautiful!
Of course, its appearance is not where its ultimate value lies - it's how easy is the instrument to play. And I will be finding that out as I progress.
I just turned 80 years old and I am a complete neophyte to the alto saxophone. I can tell you that I am massively looking forward to learning to play this instrument and to master it to whatever degree I can. I have been singing for over 7 decades. So as to hold my interest, I have chosen to learn an instrument which requires developing very good breath support, which requires developing the manual dexterity to play competently, and which requires the mental exercise involved with transposing keys. I think the alto saxophone is just the ticket for me. I am very excited to embark on this adventure!
I will keep you informed of my progress.
(BTW, if you know of and can recommend a good online training which starts at the very basics and doesn't skip any vital steps as one moves through the lessons, I will appreciate any suggestions you may want to share.)
Best, Dennis Braan

Great value!

I play the piano, guitar, bass, and drums. Learning a wind instrument has been something I've wanted to do for over a decade. This Jean Paul Student Alto Sax seems well made and plays well when I'm not screwing up. The tone is very satisfying. My only comparison is a Selmer that I rented years ago and briefly played. This was also a better choice for me than going with something used. You get everything you need to play right away. I've since bought a few more reeds, swabs, and a stand.

Mouthpiece

The instrument is good the only bad thing is the mouthpiece and the mouthpiece takes all of the good things in the instrument and the mouthpiece doesn't have the saxophone brand.

Excellent quality saxophone

This saxophone was bought for my daughters birthday and can honestly say this is hands down the best present she has ever recieved! The customer service was first class and I was kept updated throughout the delivery process which was from America to the UK. I even recieved a video of the instrument being played before the dispatch! It took just one week to arrive which in my opinion is much quicker than items I've ordered here in the uk! My daughter who has complex needs managed to play this instrument straight out of the box and hasn't put it down since. Thank you so much for the beautiful saxophone and wonderful service. My daughter is already eyeing up the trumpets...
