J. Michael Alto Saxophone AL-780

This high-end J.Michael saxophone was developed for long-term use in club activities. Inheriting the design philosophy of the Brasspire Unicorn, developed in collaboration with professional musicians, it can meet even the most demanding performance demands. It features a high F# and front F key, standard in modern saxophones. This instrument is ideal for beginners and those preparing to join a brass band. The neck, which greatly influences the saxophone's tone, is specially treated (acoustic annealing) to remove material processing stress. Acoustic annealing results in richer overtones. The resin thumb rest and brass thumb hook are combined to achieve a balance between the connection of high-midrange notes and the resonance of the low range. The pads are leather pads (made by Pizzoni in Italy) that provide excellent response and durability. A metal resonator provides a brighter sound. To ensure your instrument remains in perfect condition for years to come, you can receive unlimited free inspections and maintenance by presenting your 3-year manufacturer's support card.
