Hello from beautiful Arizona,
I am 33 years old and have never studied music before in my life; but, I decided that 2011 would be the year I learned to play the instrument I love to hear the most. I live in a small community (we don't even have a music store) and I knew getting started was going to be a challenge, especially since my budget is also very small. In late February I happened upon a church music teacher that has a Yamaha Alto and he has been willing to let me rent it, while giving me lessons, until I am able to purchase my own saxophone. I have decided I would like a tenor sax and I hope to be able to purchase one within the next month or two.
Which of these 3 Saxophones (that fall into my price range) would you suggest?
Orpheo Tenor (AL-308FPR)
Roy Benson Tenor (RBTS302)
Kenny G E Series (KGETSBS) (The older e series, not the E series II)
All are brand new. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I'm very excited to learn as much as I can and hope to play in our community orchestra one day.
