Alles perfekt mit Tenorsax Aristocrat 

Saxophon ist in einem erstaunlich guten Zustand, wie erwartet und gehofft. Video hat geholfen, war authentisch. Sax geht los wie eine Rakete. Töne stimmen, keine Stockung. Zustellung sehr umsichtig und perfekt eingepakt und schnelle Lieferung. Bin zufrieden, ich wollte das Sax unbedingt und auch schnell haben.

Costa and Geraldine were so lovely in helping me restring and set up my second hand guitar, offering advice for my broken pick up and for another old nylon string guitar I had. They have such a range of interesting instruments and were able to help answer any questions I had! Highly recommend 🫶🏽✨

Ich habe vor einem Monat ein Hohner Verdi bei Costa Instruments gekauft und bin sehr glücklich mit meinem neuen Instrument. Ich wurde von Benedikta und Costa super gut beraten, und bin begeistert von der schönen Auswahl im Geschäft. Alle Instrumente werden mit Sorgfalt, Liebe und Feingefühl in der Werkstatt überarbeitet, wärmste Empfehlung auch an alle, dessen Akkordeon ein bisschen Zuneigung braucht.

Which saxophone is right for me?

Today, saxophones are available in a wide price range – from around 500 Euros up to over 28,000 Euros for professional models. Those looking for an instrument for beginners or for building up skills should primarily pay attention to certain quality features: clean intonation and dynamic playability are just as important as smooth keywork and easily accessible keys. Uncomplicated response in all registers should also play a role when purchasing.

For higher-end models, additional aspects come into play: even more precise mechanics, a broader sound spectrum, and last but not least, the instrument's visual finish. Those who want to start playing the saxophone essentially have two recommended entry-level options: the alto saxophone or the tenor saxophone.

At what age can children learn the saxophone? Generally, children are ready for the saxophone as soon as their permanent upper incisors have fully grown – as these rest on the mouthpiece when playing.

How much does a beginner saxophone cost? Those who decide to buy will find a carefully curated selection of beginner instruments under 350 Euros at Costa Instruments. In addition to affordable entry-level models, Yamaha and Jupiter are particularly known for their solid craftsmanship and good playing characteristics in the beginner segment.

What types of saxophones are there?

The saxophone comes in many varieties – the four most important for beginners are soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone. Each sounds different, feels different, and is suitable for different players. Here's everything you need to know as a beginner.

Alto Saxophone - The popular beginner saxophone. Balanced sound, comfortable size, and the best repertoire for beginners. Popular in almost every genre, even among professionals! Tuned in Eb.

Soprano Saxophone - The brightest, most penetrating sound in the family. Similar in construction to the clarinet. Very demanding in terms of tone – intonation is more difficult to control than with the alto. Tuned in Bb.

Tenor Saxophone - Warm, full sound – the voice of jazz. Slightly larger than the alto, but still playable. Requires more airflow. Very popular in jazz bands. Tuned in Bb.

Baritone Saxophone - Rich and powerful – the foundation of any saxophone section. Large, heavy, and expensive. Not a beginner's instrument, but indispensable in big bands. Tuned in Eb.

Note: Anyone who masters the alto saxophone can relatively easily switch to tenor or soprano – all four saxophones share the same fingering system. This is a big advantage compared to starting with baritone or soprano.
