I placed the order Saturday over the internet, Bob set it up Sunday, shipped it Monday and I received it next day - today (Tuesday) by DHL... that's pretty amazing delivery speed. Free DHL shipping was in with the price of $849 - there was no import duties to pay.
The sax came complete with a gorgeous hard case (snake skin effect), reeds, grease, padded neckstrap and a mouthpiece.
This is the first time I've ever owned or played a sax. I've recently read some beginners books and watched a couple of instructional DVD's...
I put the sax together and started playing a scale - no problems - it has a beautiful tone - easy to play - but I don't know (yet) what notes I'm playing.
I played for about 30 mins - no squeaks - real nice - love it!!! My bottom lip feels a little numb - so I'll take it easy for now. I ordered a JodyJazz HR mouthpiece - should have it in a few days. If this Legend sax sounds so good with it's cheap plastic mouthpiece - I guess the JodyJazz will be really great!
The sax looks, feels and sounds like quality - they call it the Designer Series VI (a copy of Selmer VI ?)
I have a Peterson strobe tuner here so I'll be checking the intonation later and I'll post the results here.
I'm very happy that I'm getting some really great sounds from it even in my first few minutes of play...
