Soprano Saxophone B&S Series 1000, Beautiful Condition A rare German-made soprano saxophone that is rarely distributed in Japan. Due to its wide taper, it has a thick sound unlike the big three manufacturers, and it's very easy to produce a husky sound. It plays from low to high notes, and the intonation is within an acceptable range, much more stable than the commonly available Mark VI. In my impression, it's darker and more natural than Yamaha, and has a thicker sound than Yanagisawa, a fat sound unique to German instruments. As you can see, the pads are also clean, so it can be used for a long time. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to the condition of the product, as it is a used item. This listing may be removed. Those considering a purchase may want to do so quickly. Returns are not accepted as the item has been inspected. We plan to list several other saxophones, including famous and vintage items, so please take a look.
