Barnes & Mullins Trevor James – SR – Alto Saxophone – Bronze

A great intermediate alto sax with plenty of warnth of tone due to the bronze material

This bronze SR is designed and set up in the UK, and manufactured in Trevor James own overseas factories making it an intermediate sax that’s extraordinarily good value for money. 

Description

Launched in January 2011, the Trevor James ‘SR’ range has been developed in close cooperation with sax players around the World including players such as Andy Sheppard. Using the hand built professional Signature Custom models as the template, the SR instruments have taken on many of the mechanism and crook features that were previously only available to professional players. The results are very free-blowing saxophones with rich tonal characteristics.

Bronze as an alloy will produce more warmth and power in equal measures.

 STAFF REVIEW

“If you’re after value for money, look no further than the Trevor James SR; a stalwart choice in our intermediate range boasting a professional sound. Upon playing I immediately noticed the richness in the tone, a strong core yet still a spread to the sound that is reminiscent of its professional counterpart (the Signature Custom RAW). There is a clear stability to the sound which is matched by the build and ergonomics, and provides an evenness across the range which makes playing in tune feel effortless. High notes pop out easily and there is a fat warmth to the low notes that isn’t often found on horns in this price range. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable playing experience!” – Harry – SAX
