25 YEARS WITH ANTIGUA! The Model 25 Tenor Saxophone!
they both sound fine. The buffet sounded more stable with intonation, from what I could tell. The selmer sounded fine in tune, just thought you had less need to control the buffet
Hey Andrew how you doing this is Ken Falls and Atlanta. I like the sound of the buffet 400 it has a nice thick sound. The summer seemed a little lighter but I could tell by the way your hands were moving on the keys it like the 411 better than the 400. I would probably shoot for the 411 because I have a fat sound in myself by the mouthpiece that I'm using. I would shoot for the 411 because of the ergonomics of the horn I'll probably give you a call Monday
I'm learning Tenor on the Buffet 400, do you think that it's offputtingly heavy in your hands?
Que boquillas estas usando?
Is 62 is enough for a professional playing? I mean classical and jazz .
Without a doubt, it's a very solid horn with loads of qualities that any pro player would want.
I’ve been playing the same Mark VI since I paid $500 for it in 1973 sn# 210***, inimitable tone, typical intonation issues, had an adult student a few years ago who a Yamaha 62 - loved ergonomics and intonation…So the question is: the retail price on that 82A, shipped to 33065?
Hi Peter here. Thank you so much for making my decision to purchase the 82Z custom (Black lacquer) the correct one, by playing it so beautifully. You showed just what this instrument is capable of. Well done.
Nice I’m gonna start violin in 2 weeks can’t wait
I have a tenor 82z. And Since i have Been playing yamaha my whole life there honestly isn’t a huuuge difference from my other horns. But great horn No doubt.
82 II nd version what is the diffrence
I have the unlacquered 82z on both alto and tenor and I love them both
Not sure about your comment about 82z more for experienced players. I'm just an amateur jazz player, not even college level. I play-tested both the 62 and 82z a decade ago, felt a huge difference and proceeded to select and purchase the 82z. If anything the customz was tons easier to play and sound. I guess it did play bright, so i did swap my ligature to darken the tone. But that was it. I've gigged a bunch and audiences generally loved the playing. So.. yeah, I don't see what's so difficult about playing the customz at all. Love it.
Does the Atelier model have the same finish?
Nice detailed review thanks!
Have one and love it. Blank paper you can color with mouthpieces and reeds.
Heavy in the pocketbook... Does not make it a quality horn
Except it is a quality horn. I choose to play this model exclusively now instead of my Yani. The tone color and overall expressiveness of sound is objectively better. Keilwerth artists also helped design the horn. Who cares where it's made? Most of the 'fad' pro models of today are also made in China or Taiwan.
French horn: 5 to 6 octaves????? NO. The VERY BEST in the world can consistently play 4.5 to 5 octaves, functionally. CONN 8Ds have NOT been consistent through the decades. The 'letter series' from Elkhart, IN were the best. The CONNS made in Abilene, TX sucked completely. The earlier the Elkhart were extremely good, but the Elkhart, IN letter series were the BEST. Luckily, CONN/Selmer has now returned to making their 8Ds according to that spec. Today's manufacturing processes actually improve upon the 'letter series' from Elkhart. I don't need the dang water key, however. I guess I'll live with it... I made Principal Horn in the TX All-State Orchestra. 1981. I played with the Houston Symphony by age 22. Audition the NEW CONN 8Ds. Made in Eastlake, OH - Get one made after 2021.
CONN/SELMER is now making CONN 8Ds according to the Vince DeRosa 260 page specifications. These adhere to the GREATEST 'letter series' spec that was made in Elkhart, IN. I am auditioning these horn to find MY HORN. I know what I'm talking about.
I don’t know why some commenters here were so critical towards your demo. Nothing wrong with it at all, especially considering that 99% of the Aerophone playing content I see online here and elsewhere is truly dull and forgettable lite/smooth jazz flavored material. Hate to be such a Negative Nancy but I just don’t see anyone taking advantage of it’s impressive synth capabilities. Seems the instrument is just way ahead of its time maybe?
Interesting video and I thank you for making it. I am a clarinet guy who is 72 and wants to relearn the alto. (I played it in high school) My concern is that the cost is high and there is a part of me that suspects that this horn has "made mostly in china" in its DNA and I do not want to purchase ANYTHING that comes from China. Am I missing the boat here?
Should have had equivalent mic placement for these puppies. Beautiful sound either way. Thanks for sharing
0:53 he almost forgot about the viola
Such a high quality video! Can't believe this doesn't have that many views. Keep it up!!
To be honest, it sounds quite bad.
Judging by what he is saying, he got one for free. Antigua (Taiwan)🙄 yea sure. 😂 You need to work on your tone.
I played a 62 tenor for 6 months, but, from the first notes I played on the 82II, it just seemed to have a more complex tone. It took me a few months of daily playing to make the horn "mine", but I've had it for 6 years now and haven't regretted trading up. (And it goes longer between repair/tune-ups than the 62.)
See your points, but sticking to my 62, BTW, even w/o purple logo it is great.
Happy Birthday Andrew 🎉
Just got one a week ago! first soprano having come from an alto and I couldn't have asked for a better horn
I have a 62 02, european name. With a Meyer HR mpc and a filed 2.5 reed you forgot to go to sleep !
I’ve had my 480 for a few years now, and I was faced with whether I wanted to buy a custom neck or upgrade the horn. After trying a few options, including both the 62 and 82z, I determined the horn I had was fine, and I ended up with a te1 neck, and it plays like a dream. YMMV, but I couldn’t justify paying $5,000 for an upgraded horn when the improvements are so minor.
I am from india. I am using Yamaha 26 china made copy.good one for beginners
What mouthpiece did you say you used?
What type of neck does the YAS 875 EX come with?
Do you think you could review the reversed leadpipe version of this model?
Buffet is a saxophone I've had in my collection since 1981 of various models. I would say that all the ones i've had demonstrate the same overriding design principles, which are to be mellow, rich, with great intonation. This would be the number one go-to for playing a non-solo part in a band. I've never been able to make one of these "scream" of any model or year of Buffet, but I've obviously not owned all of them (I do own this particular Buffet 400). My personal take on these is that they align with what I've read about the original intentions for the saxophone by Adophe Sax, and they do that better than all others in my opinion. I do think they are a different animal than most other saxophones in that respect. Being made in China or Taiwan as an issue, I'll only say that horns are made according to the design principles of a designer, and sound accordingly. I wouldn't draw connections between a buffet and cheaply made horns from the same region, because my experience is that the cheapness of those amazon horns doesn't spread like a virus due to geographic proximity, and also that you are kidding yourself if you think your <4k Selmer was made in Paris :P . In that price range, I think you can debatably do better, and definitely do much worse.
Comprei um 62 III ha 1 ano. Na sua opiniao qual tudel ficaria melhor o V1 o G1???
Yts 62s purple logo’ so good
62!
Also have a Purple Logo, with a V1 gold laquered and a silver plated G1 Neck, Sounds awesome🤩
Just get a purple logo 62 it plays just as good as an 82Z
82 Z . So versatile. My horn for last 10 plus years.
There's no such thing as Selmer USA! They've been out of business several years now...well over 6 months. That horn you're demoing is made in Taiwan.
I’m an advanced violinist, is this still a good violin for me?
Hi! I was wondering, did this instrument replace the TS44? This is what I was told, but looking for info from a more reliable source. Thanks!
