An affordable starting point

An alto saxophone is considered especially good for beginners if it offers a high level of sound dynamics and if it rests comfortably in your hands. The Thomann TAS-180 Black alto saxophone fulfils these criteria and is currently one of the most affordable Eb saxophones on the market. This saxophone makes a convincing case thanks to its balanced intonation in all registers and a very good response. Together with the black lacquered finish of the body and the gold lacquered keys, the metal resonators attached to their leather pads ensure a voluminous and powerful sound. The scope of delivery includes a gig bag with backpack straps, a two-reed mouthpiece, and a strap. This bundle additionally includes a set of care utensils and a set of useful accessories as well as a stand and a pack of reeds.

What does Eb Alto mean?

The Eb alto saxophone is part of the saxophone family, the other main members of which are the soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone, and baritone saxophone. The term "alto" stands for the vocal range. The Eb alto saxophone is a transposing instrument, which means that a C played on this saxophone corresponds to an Eb on the piano or the guitar. The C played on an Eb alto saxophone therefore always sounds a major sixth lower. This is why notes for instruments in C tuning are not compatible with Eb alto saxophones (separate notation is available, however).

This is what a good start is all about

An appropriate saxophone for beginners and advanced players should be built in such a way that it enables well-intonated and dynamic playing in all registers and, on top of that, it should be durable. The intonation possibilities shouldn’t be too extensive, but they should not be too limited either. The mechanism has to be smooth, and the valves should be easy to operate. The Thomann TAS-180 Black alto saxophone fulfils all of these requirements and therefore represents a good starting point. Whether you are a beginner or coming to the Eb alto saxophone from another instrument, the TAS-180 Black will be an excellent choice thanks to its price-performance ratio. Since this saxophone exhibits a wide dynamic sonic spectrum and also has a warm and voluminous sound, it is particularly interesting for young Rock and Pop sax players.
