Customer ratings for Classic Cantabile TS-450 Brushed Tenor Saxophone

The saxophone arrives with rust spots and even some spots with a bad paint job (almost no varnish). The sound is great, but I ordered it as a second saxophone because I thought the fingering would be more comfortable. The change from C# to low Bb is not very ergonomic.

I needed a tenor sax for teaching at short notice and was surprised for this price to get an instrument that (with my own mouthpiece) responds easily in all registers and very clean intonation. For students or as a second instrument absolutely recommendable.

I am a professional saxophonist and I needed a second saxophone, the sax was delivered in a few days and well packaged. I tried it with my mouthpiece and I was favorably surprised by the performance of the instrument, of course I also compared it with the one I usually use and the result is more than honorable. The sound is good throughout the whole range, both bass and treble, and is easy to play. The mechanics respond well and are precise. I recommend this instrument to those who want to start studying, the fingering is particularly suitable for those who do not have big hands yet. The price is excellent and certainly lower than the quality of the instrument.
I also recommend it to those who, like me, want an "honest" instrument that they can work with.

I ordered the saxophone because of the many positive reviews. It also comes with an Expression 5 mouthpiece and there is definitely nothing wrong with the sound. The machine heads also work perfectly. I would buy this instrument again at any time.

Great saxophone for that amount. Plays with a Yamaha or Selmer mouthpiece like a professional sax.

Besides the first positive impression after my order, which was left by an email to me with further information on the subject, the instrument was ready to go right away with all accessories and super set up - as I can judge as a beginning layman.

I am so taken with the service alone that I will certainly be looking for other musical items here in the near future.

I'm not very satisfied.
Some keys are a bit out of adjustment, especially the octave key.
The sound is not bad.

The sax arrived well packed, without any damage.
That same evening I took it to the rehearsal and tried it out.
Nice sound, but I had 1 problem .... The Ta valve kept hanging.
So the next day I took the sax to a recognised sax-repairer and had it checked, he fixed the problem, he did find that the sax (especially for this money) has a good sound that is on par with mid-range saxophones.
Despite the Ta Valve problem it's a wonderful sax, that speaks easily and has a nice sound.
I will recommend to put a different mouthpiece on it.

The product was very well packaged and was with us within 2 days.
We were very critical of the instrument, as my daughter has previously played 2 years on a Yamaha rental saxophone and we also have a brand piano and accordion at home.
My daughter gets along very well with the instrument. The saxophone teacher is also positively surprised.
A good instrument.

Classical instrument for its general aspect, with a neat finish and an "antique yellow" colour that I personally find very stylish. All this for a reasonable price. Pleasant sound, fast and fluid reactivity. Ideal and suitable for beginners who do not want to ruin themselves for a first instrument. I highly recommend this product!!

Before I decided to buy this instrument, I put above all value on a cheap, but in its sound good to intoning and Händelbarkeit ahead. Since this is my third sax besides alto and soprano, I wanted to test this once myself.
After I have now played a few weeks with it, I have noticed the smooth-running mechanism and also the handling positively. It has an easy response with the included mouthpiece and even the lower notes can be played well, although it requires more air.
After I had exchanged the mouthpiece against a Selmer, it became immediately a bright joy, because I reached a good intonation with the usual air volume and also deeper tones can be played more easily. Here, of course, everyone should find his own suitable mouthpiece and just try, which is also very interesting.
The instrument itself has a good adjusted mechanics, as already mentioned. The optics is appealing and of good quality. One should also not forget that an instrument can only be as good as its player himself. If one is able to develop clean tones with this instrument, there is a clear leap in quality for instruments of the upper class.
The conclusion of my playing results are good intonation with a wide range of variation, which not only beginners and advanced players will appreciate.
From my personal point of view, a clear buy recommendation.
