yeah .... it's an alto.
I played tenor for many years and had all 5 main saxes (tenor, alto, c-melody, soprano and baritone) .... but I didn't play in horn bands that much ....... sometimes did, but mostly it was guitar bands where I played sax and guitar and they were loud so I was after the loudest sax I could find and alto is by far the loudest.
I still have a tenor but unlike most sax players I don't double on tenor/alto or sax/flute ...... I double on guitar and I already have enough crap to carry around so one sax is it.
Also .... it is my belief that if you really want to play well you need to play one instrument because all saxes are outta tune and you have to lip them into tune across the range of the horn.
Maybe G will be a bit sharp but A will be flat etc.
So the only way to get where you're not having to think about it is to play one horn all the time.
And the only way to really flow when soloing is to not have to think about it.
ergo: the only way to really flow is to play only one horn.
I actually have two Selmer Super Action 80's but only play one of them all the time for that very reason .... EVERY single sax is different tuning-wise. Not every model but every sax.
About a month ago at an outside gig a local guitarist (who's VERY good) came up and told me he knew it was me as soon as he got out of his car.
I asked him, "Why? Do I have a unique sound?" .... hoping that I did.
He replied, "No ..... because you play in tune!"
..... not what I was hoping for!
The amp: Holy crap that's a beautiful clean amp inside and out ...... great buy!
