Cool video except the guy's not using his brain. If you want to make it really cool don't show which saxophone you are playing. Let your ears be the judge instead of saying this is a $20,000 one you got to let people do a blind test

That Eastman sounds louder and clearer to me .!! But Selmer was more smooth

I am looking for an Alto good quality, nice tone and strong mechanism

It’s the Indian not the arrow !

agora sim faz sentido ele ser das madeiras. kkkkk

He was spot on but additionally that’s one heck of a sax shop.

Atlantic london

Which mouthpiece opening is he on.

Which mouthpiece opening is he on.

Great music, ❤❤❤

for me- Selmer, Cannon, Yana. thank you for your efforts for us!

Please make a video comparison of the Conn-Selmer Premiere and LeBlanc Baritones!

As with geoffcsax, I agree with him. Very minimal difference with most of the sounds and it's definitely the player that makes the difference. For me, if the sounds of these horns are very similar, I'd have to go there myself and try the ergonomics for myself. These are all great "looking" horns. However, again, I'd have to try the horns for myself while deciding what kind of sound I'm leaning more towards and what kind of music I want to use the horn for. Great video, though. Thank you very much. I've been mostly playing altos for most of my sax playing life. So, I'd have to spend time getting use to playing tenors for a while.

"The Duke" - Wow! What a BOSS name for a BOSS horn.

What's the song you're playing to test the saxophones? It's lovely. ❤

i like the yamaha i play on THE POORE MANS SAX P-Mauriat 55swing jx cc

The worst saxophone in my opinion is Selmer supreme I was going to buy it but I just play tested you would not believe I put them back after 1 minute and decided to keep all my selmer SBA and SA80 s2😭

I NEED to play bari but i love tenor 😢

The 20000 had that FAT punch on the low notes 😫

Haha they don’t all sound the same! But kudos to the demonstrator for expressing each horn with accurate phrasing. My faves fwiw. Selmer Supreme, Atlantic Duke, Rampone and Cazzani, Keilwerth Shadow. 😊

Yanagisawa & Shadow. Others were pretty mid for professional horns.

I’m partial to the TJ Sig Custom, which I just bought about a month ago. 2nd choice would be the R&C. I’m in love with the sound and ergonomics of my TJ. It’s a hard tenor to put down. Thanks for this demo! Great job!

Great job! The Z and the Yani sound great. Also these are modern horns and not vintage mark vi or sba! These horns sound great and it’s because of the player. As long as the person likes their sound and how they play it what really matters and not necessarily the brand.🎷

I’d buy the 2k one

Thanks for this informative video! I'm interested in knowing which saxophone would be the best to start with-something that will help me get the basics down and serve as a versatile instrument before I make a bigger investment. I plan to dedicate myself to practice for the next six months. At this stage, they all sound similar to me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

How about "cheap mouthpiece with expensive sax vs. expensive mouthpiece with cheap sax?"

Yanagisawa, Selmer and Eastman got the sound right...

When will you be comparing Pro Soprano Sax brands too. Its long over due. It's always Alto and Tenor on display

Could i ask what mic are you using the clarity is superb

May I ask you, which one you like the most to play ? Which one you felt was easier and more fluent ? Because all of them sound great, but maybe you struggle to play some and maybe you felt that pleasure of playing some of those sax… which one was it ??? Thx

lol. Top 10 tenors pros play and not a Mark VI or SBA !!!

82Z sounded the best to me here.

Top sopranos?

The Custom Z will always be my dream horn

To be honest, I was so mesmerized by George's playing and this song I wasn't paying attention to the make and model. That was great!

I would have to say that the Selmer probably offers a wider range of nuance. The others sound wonderful and have each their own timbre which may or may not fit the person playing that particular horn. The Selmer I think gives the player the possibility of choice. I did not think this about the Supreme tenor. Just my observation-the whole thing is subjective.

The Keilwerth Shadow probably won overall with nice color throughout and the beautiful fat bottom end! The Yamaha Custom Z II has a great overall straight color from top to bottom and this makes it quite popular. Dare I say that the Custom ZII is the best modern Mark VI? Ok I’m sorry for saying that but I said it! Yanagisawa sounded nice! And was surprised by the clear beautiful resonating sound from the Cannonball. Personally I own an amazing 1964 long bow Mark VI, two Custom Z II’s black and one gold, and an Antigua Pro One! Great variety for myself! Enjoyed the demonstration and comparisons! Thank You!

No Rampone Cazzani R1?😢

The only ones that sounded different from the others was the Supreme, 82ZII, and the SX90R. Everything else was to some extent the same.

I liked the Supreme and Keilwerth. Which Supreme was that, gold plated? but I was a bit surprised George demonstrated the Yanagisawa AWO20 but not the more affordable and I guess more popular, AWO1.

I am impressed by the Supreme ... I was not convinced by the Tenor, but the Alto seems to be in another league ...

You forgot Antiqua pro one alto , it’s great horn too

Well played, George! 🎶🎧🤔 Thank you, team. I'll listen to the soprano sax one as well,of course. I very much want the bari sax one, please. At your convenience, I can wait.

aww it was unfortunate the R1 jazz couldn't be added, i was also hoping that the solista will also be compared with. Great playing as always though!

Always great to see comparison videos! Especially for someone whos in the market for a sax.

Thank you for watching our video! While we made every effort to maintain consistency across all clips, please be aware that there will be variations, and different players will sound different on various saxophones. We also intended to include the Rampone & Cazzani R1 Jazz alto, but unfortunately, it is not currently in stock. Pop us an email or call us if you'd like any further information on any of our saxophones! 🎷✌🏻

which is the lightest

I will clarify this situation. Here, all ten recordings are played on only one saxophone. Not on ten different ones, but on just one. This is the marketing focus of the SaxCoUK store. Several years ago I worked as a salesman in a specialty saxophone store. And I thoroughly tested all the available saxophones. Of the ten models presented in this video, I tested seven. I tested them when the saxophones were in excellent playing condition, having been adjusted by a saxophone technician. And I confidently declare that all seven had their own sound characteristics. An experienced saxophonist can always hear this - it can be heard and felt when playing. But in the video presented here, all the saxophones sound exactly the same. This is not true! Don't be fooled, gentlemen!

Can we hear the bari's and alto's too

The average listener could not discern any difference between any of them. They all sound great, but almost identical. Get a vintage horn like a Conn 10m if you want to go for a distinctive sound.
