What would be the best kind of Alto Saxophone to buy?
I am going to pick one out tomorrow.
I am going into Marching band next year too,
and I would REALLY like one that is either Silver with gold keys, all black, or Black with gold keys.
What kind would be best?
I'm thinking this one,
http://www.jupitermusic.com/jbi_instrumentDetails.aspx?cId=22&lId=2&sId=1&pId=106
but I need a good, professional opinion.
Thanks
IDK if this helps,
but I'll be in 9th grade next year,
and I am a really experienced player,
I made first chair all county, which means I am the best middle schooler in my county,
and I play on going far in music,
so I'd like an instrument that will hold up and be really sturdy for awhile
Personally I despise Jupiters. I've never seen a good playing Jupiter from the many other kids have had one so I wouldn't recommend them.
The Top 4 Brands are probably: Yanagisawa, Selmer, and Keilwerth, and Yamaha
Almost all professionals play the above.
First of all, you shouldn't just pick colors. A lot of professional saxophones nowadays do have different visual effects, but that's not to say normal looking saxophones are bad. (This is one example of an outstanding horn http://wwbw.com/Selmer-Paris-Model-52---Super-Action-80-Professional-Alto-Saxophone-i16702.music)
An exception to this is black nickel and silver. Some players prefer the sound over regular brass, but a black nickel or silver plated horn is not necessarily better.
So to answer your "color" question, for silver w/ gold you could look at Yanagisawa models A9933, A 9935, A9937. These are extremely expensive horns and I probably wouldn't recommend them to you, I'll talk about that later.
All black- I've seen "all black" saxophones by a low name brand called Conservatory but they are by no means professional. The closest is probably the Keilwerth shadow, which is black nickel with silver keys. Again I probably wouldn't recommend.
Black with gold keys- The Keilwerth SX90r (not shadow) in black nickel is black with gold keys. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.tulsaband.com/store/images/P/t_16181BD.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.tulsaband.com/store/product.php%3Fproductid%3D16181&usg=__RMFjHZHmuqP13NudxEIQoB2raFw=&h=300&w=133&sz=49&hl=en&start=7&um=1&tbnid=t_FzND0pqt1SMM:&tbnh=116&tbnw=51&prev=/images%3Fq%3DKeilwerth%2BSX90R%2BAlto%2BSaxophone%2BBlack%2BNickel%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN
Again, I wouldn't recommend.
Also, there is the Yanagisawa A991 in Black lacquer. I would recommend the A991, but you pay about 500$ for black lacquer.
Ok. So you are in Eighth Grade. Which means you've probably had about 4 years of so of playing saxophone. I don't think this is sufficient enough time to jump up to a top end model, no matter how advanced you are.
I'm not saying you shouldn't invest in a good horn. The thing is, after a certain point, you start paying mad $$$ for the smallest features.
From your description, I would recommend a low end professional model. I own a Yamaha YTS-82Z, which is a 3,000$, pretty much "low end" professional and it is a great horn, especially if you have a good mouthpiece.
You should take a look at the YAS-82z, YAS-875EX, Yanagisawa A991, and (cheaper) Keilwerth EX90
One note is that you may want to keep the horn you own now because in marching band, the elements can really tear up a new sax (I've seen this first hand).
I'll post some links to the ones I recommended below. Sounds like you are really eager to get your hands on a top-line, but I'd recommend you wait until college or after college.
