Stewart Ellis is the name of a Chinese brand diffused in Belgium, The Netherlands and Germany (and other European countries)

They are Chinese made saxophones normally selling very cheap. The quality is average for these Chinese made products and they are easily found on the secondhand market typically making a lot less than they cost new.

Good luck.

If you are asking if this is the regular price, it is.

If you are asking if I would buy it and if I would pay 400€ the answer is no.

The problem is, especially with a soprano, that buying a new ultra cheap saxophone is rarely a good idea.

On the other hand to buy a secondhand good soprano you might need more than 400€.

Also, to buy a secondhand saxophone in general, and a soprano in particular, you need to be able to test it and test it well.

Also, a soprano overhaul can easily be more than 400€.

So my advise is save money and then buy a better sax.

Good luck!

As written above their quality is such to be representing the lowest segment of the market. Often used by beginners they are near to impossible to sell once the beginner is done.

In my opinion anyone’s money would be better spent on a Yamaha bought secondhand rather than buying one of these new. Especially altos, since yamaha altos are often found for very little money indeed these days.
