Leafy Tree asked:


I am buying my daughter, who is 8, a saxophone – she has never played but has shown an interest for the past 3 months.

I have seen an Esprit Alto Saxophone which retails at £290 – I have only seen the one so don’t know if this is a good price to pay?

I have searched the internet for a price comparison on Esprit, but cannot find any instruments by this manufacturer.

Is Esprit a relatively good make for a beginner? If not, what is?

I know nothing about purchasing a saxophone and just don’t want to get ripped off.

Many thanks

Anna
