Altsaksofon JP245, Lakkert

JP245 Eb Alto Saxophone

The JP245 is a well-made Eb Alto Saxophone which, through an extensive period of research and development, has achieved a level of performance usually reserved for instruments much more expensive. This new design JP instrument is solidly built and "has a very positive and crisp action and produces a well balanced spread of sound with a full bodied and defined lower register" (Read the whole Jazzwise Magazine review in the reviews tab below). The JP245 has garnered much praise from many experts within in the industry who have described it "extraordinarily good value for money" and as having "excellent Intonation and a dynamic range that is nothing short of remarkable for an instrument at this price point."

The high grade 80:20 brass construction of the JP245 contributes towards it's sound, especially at home within big band horn sections. The instrument also features many high specification elements such as an underslung 8ve mechanism, blue steel springs and a high F# and front F keys. Well crafted, the instrument is durable and robust with a fully ribbed construction and a double spine on B & C. Italian leather pads and resonator pads are equipped as standard.
