Key Features
Product Ref: 319960
Recognising the challenges younger players face, the Trevor James AlphaSax has been meticulously crafted to cater to their specific needs. By redesigning the traditional alto saxophone to remove problematic keys and adjust the positioning of others, this instrument ensures comfort and accessibility. Its lightweight nature, being 33% lighter than standard models, allows for ease of play and handling, enabling young musicians to focus on their technique and musical expression without the burden of a cumbersome instrument.
The AlphaSax provides a full two-octave chromatic scale from low C to high D without compromising on the established finger positioning. This allows for a seamless transition to more advanced saxophones in the future. The removal of less commonly used keys does not detract from the instrument's capability to deliver a rich and full sound, ensuring that students can explore a wide range of musical pieces and styles from the very beginning of their musical journey.
With high-quality Pisoni pads equipped with metal reflectors, the AlphaSax ensures a tight seal and excellent intonation across all notes. This attention to detail in its construction not only enhances playability but also contributes to the instrument's beautiful, well-balanced sound. Students can produce strong and consistent tones, encouraging them to develop their musical ear and refine their playing skills.
The Trevor James AlphaSax Alto Saxophone Outfit is more than just an instrument; it's a comprehensive package designed to get young saxophonists off to a flying start. It includes a lightweight moulded case with backpack straps, making it easy to transport to lessons or performances. Additionally, the outfit comes with a harness strap, mouthpiece, cap, single screw ligature, and reed, ensuring that students have everything they need to begin playing right away.
