Hi there. My son is 15 and already plays piano and clarinet (UK grade 7) and has tried out an alto sax for a short session - he was managing a grade 3 piece after 10 minutes or so.
I'm not too sure where this new interest will take him but I would like to give him the opportunity of following it through, but I would not want to spend a large amount until I know that he wants to take it up seriously.
A second-hand one would probably be the best bet, but I wouldn't want to buy one that he might grow out of in a short time.
What instrument/s would you recommend? Would an older model give him more scope than say, a Yamaha YAS 23? Can you recommend any good sources here in the UK?
Thanks, Les G
