Think the curved sounds strange, although Derek Nash blows one, got 5 of his CDs, seen him lots. PS If you go on long drives his Flatiron Suite is soothing - seen it live - omg what a marathon blow!

Exactly! What we can't hear in the videos is how easy it plays. How ergonomically you can hold your hands, the strength of the springs, etc. We'd need to hear a beginner trying hard to get a sound out of the horns and see if he/she fails more often on one than on the other. ;) Jay may be so good that he compensates subconsciously for minor imperfections that can be serious obstacles for others.

There’s a point to which this holds true, but my saxophone is fully in order, and I need a new one soon. It just doesn’t do the things I need it to do. I have to fight good tones out of it, and it’s nowhere near easy to play more than one very niche style on it. Yes, for a much more causal player than I, it doesn’t really matter, but outgrowing saxophones is a thing. (I’m talking about altos fyi, not baris yet)

@Jason Russo Well. You probably don’t know how a comparison test is performed. First step, you have to do the blind test, sometimes a double blind test. A real test is not a comparative test. A real test is that you are playing a song for an audience that doesn’t know that it is the saxophone sound that is tested. Then you do the same test with the same song for another audience that supposed to be similar to the first one. Then you create a questionnaire and ask about a lot including the sound of the saxophone. No way you will get different answers. The human mind is terrible to hear or taste differences. As long as the saxophones are in perfect order you won’t hear any difference when using the same mouthpiece, read and player. Anathotical evidence does not count.

After seeing this review, I finally saved enough money to get it, and I absolutely love it. I haven’t been able to play bari since middle school (college freshman now). It sounds clear and punchy and hits the low notes so well. Note that it does seem to like to play low notes a lot easier than the high notes. It’s a lot more responsive and better quality than the ones my school had (that were triple the price at least). It’s solid and doesn’t feel fragile. The case has lots of nice storage and handles. I’m even able to fit a few binders with my music in there. If you’re a poor working college or high school kid like me, then this is perfect for you.

One thing that would make this great review even better is to hear from a repairman regarding the long term repair-ability of the horn. A good bari overhaul is around $1,500 and will last 10 years for most players. But if your repairman informs you that he can’t overhaul it 5 years in and it is already worn out, you would be better off going a different route.

Enjoyed the video. I live in China and contacted the manufacturer after seeing the video. They are an OEM for Conn-Selmer and GEWA as I understand. I ordered a Bari sax directly from them. Not the model you tested, but a bronze model (SDS-2019), which they sell as their "professional" model (abt. 2500 USD in China). I absolutely love it. Sounds amazing (with a JJ DV7 mouthpiece) and definitely well built as you show on the video. I've been longing for some time for a baritone sax in my collection (all Selmer Paris, soprano series III, alto Ref54 Hummingbird collector ed. and tenor Ref54 kookaburra collector ed), but was looking up against the investment of a Bari sax in the 10,000 USD price range to complete the Selmer series. This video made my day.

Okay, so I just saw this video the other day and then purchased this horn on Amazon. It came in less than a week and it is AWESOME!!! I just can't believe how good it sounds. It actually got here before my reeds and mouthpiece which were ordered on the same day. The horn came with a reed and decent mouthpiece. Thanks so much for the tip. Breaks over, headed back to the shed.

When you first started playing, I closed my eyes and listened... and waited for the tone/timbre/etc to change when you swapped horns. I NEVER heard the change!!! I then opened my eyes and was astounded that both horns sounded almost identical. VERY impressive. My question is the about the left pinky finger table. I have medium hands and have an issue with getting my finger all the way down the Bb key. While the table on my bari is articulated, it is not scalloped in a way to help the fingers move around.

I want a bari so bad . Only time I even played one was at jazz improv camp and asked the kid that was playing if I could try it.I liked it and I honestly think I could adapt to it pretty well from tenor. The bari I played was a super 20, which was property of the university.

You don’t talk about a couple of important things: 1) Are parts available for the cheaper horn when it breaks? 2) The durability (which you won’t know for awhile).

So glad to finally get this video! At the same time though I'm a little bummed the bari is still so pricey. I had unrealistic hopes of what a cheap horn goes for. Probably worth pointing out to interested buyers that the excellent mouthpiece you're using is driving the enjoyable sound and will add $650 to the $2300 horn. Sigh... maybe someday. Thanks for another great vid!

They are both very professional instruments . if there is a difference its not at all noticeable ..I play in two sax sections down her in Fla and sit next to some varied Bari players and ive even seen a Bari made in China for $ 1000 that sounded pretty damn good .

This bari looks 100% identical to my Thomann TBS-150, even the engravinig is identical. They must be the same sax, with different branding. I'm extremely happy with my Thomann.

Also the Kessler & Sons Solist bari. I did purchase this bari directly from Singers Day. I’ve owned it six-ish months now. Maybe that made a difference, but mine plays very well in tune. Very easy hit low A. I use a Jody Jazz HR* mouthpiece. Also, I found with Leger reeds I can get a little more bark out of it. I play jazz, swing, Motown, and some rock. It’s working wonderfully for me.

I figured I would share my experience with the horn. Ive had the Singers Day for quite some time now. It's held up very well. I'm extremely happy with the quality of the instrument as well as the case it comes with. A few things however, the mouthpiece it comes with definitely isn't fantastic and do not even attempt to use the reed or neck strap. Get your own. Other than that. It's a great horn. Had a minor sealing problem with my F-Key but was not the fault of the actual sax. I think I dropped it. And the Side-E key came a little further down from the rest of the right palm keys. But it doesn't effect the sound or playing at all. Overall great horn and has held up well so far. If you're looking for a bari sax but are on a budget. Definitely would recommend.

I bought a secondhand Hanson Bari after a full service it took a bit of experimenting to find the right mouthpiece and reed combo. I’m set now but the most challenging aspect was finding a physical set up that was sustainable. I ended up with a Vandoren harness.

Hi Jay, my 6 year-old son loves your review videos. Thank you so much! Also, I know it's absurd, but he really wants me to leave this comment for you. I quote, trying to include his emotions: "Jay, PLEASE make a Bass Sax video. It WOULD BE AWESOME! Thanks!" Good luck finding a "cheap" bass sax on Amazon to review.... Thanks again!

In 2015 I actually bought a TaiShan Winds TSBS-680 Bari Sax new, for $1500 shipped! Still playing it! It isn't a B901 clone, but it takes many design features of the B901! But, I don't recommend TaiShan unless you can do your own setup. It took a lot to properly set it up (I do my own setups). I point people to Kessler, Chateau, and Antigua for affordable baris that are easy setup with solid customer support.
