Saxophone Central is a platform where you can hear all of the gear you're interested in, even if you can't get your hands on it first. If we don't think that it's a quality piece of gear, it probably won't be on this website. We'll talk you through all of the features and how they might pertain to your own playing style. We can discuss the pros and cons, and other players are welcome to weigh in on the conversation too. Consider this a platform to help you make a wise decision about a new gear purchase. These are reviews done by carefully-picked professional musicians with weight in the industry- people that count on their gear to make a living night after night.
