I normally play alto (Selmer series 80) but started in a group that plays a lot of Motown oldies and needed to double on tenor. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a tenor so I ordered a cheaper "student" model which was a piece of junk. Sent it back and exchanged for the 475 and was immediately impressed with the horn's quality for the price. Intonation and adjustment is perfect. This horn plays like the old 62 and sounds like one also. You won't go wrong with this horn. It ain't a Mark VI but it'll do the job. The Yamaha 4C mouthpiece was a nice surprise. With a Rico 2.5 it plays like an old Meyer.
I am a professional musician and gig 2 to 3 times a week. I have been using a "WOODWIND? brand horn. It worked fine but struggled with tone. I knew I needed better but I hate to spend big bucks. I ordered this horn from the B stock and it arrived with a twisted bell which kept the lower register pads from closing completely. It leaked big time. Took it to the shop and got it fixed and wow! The horn plays itself. Smooth transition and effortless lower and upper register. I do have to lip upper C # but who cares. The horn is a dream to play. WWBW also paid the repair bill no questions asked...That?s real customer service!!!
I love my 475!! I've played the student model and the pro model and truthfully the student model doesn't even come close to this. The action of this instrument is 1000x better! As far as the 875 Vs 475? Sure there is a difference, however I would say for anyone but a serious gigging Pro the 475 is the way to go. The playability is quite comparable and with the right neck most people wouldn't hear a difference!
I've been playing sax for years now and this may be one of the best intermediate saxes I have ever played. It's it has a very good response and it maintains a pretty good tone throughout the scale. Overall, I would reccomend this sax to anyone in middle school, high school or college that is of intermediate ability.
had this sax for 3 years now and im always impressed by the way it responds!! i use this for jazz and classical concert band and always works great and i never have to worry about something breaking!
