Student-friendly details encourage musical growth





The Tromana AS300 alto is designed to be accessible to beginning band students. The included mouthpiece is shaped, outside and in, to facilitate proper embouchure development. As the alto sax can be cumbersome in the hands of younger beginners, Tromana has paid particular attention to the keywork to ensure fluid ease of movement. Its ergonomic key layout and easy action, powered by blue steel springs (the professional standard for durable, perfectly tensioned keywork), are ideal for younger players while giving them room to grow as they refine their fingering technique. Its high-quality Italian leather pads (another pro industry standard) ensure an airtight fit for a commanding, assertive tone that inspires confidence from your very first notes.





Quality construction ensures years of consistent performance





The AS300 student alto saxophone may be affordable, but it doesn’t sacrifice quality. Extra bracing ensures the durability beginning students need, and the horn’s excellent performance fosters the development of good playing techniques as they advance. Like most pro horns, the AS300 includes a high F# key, but it’s also fitted with an F# helper bar to provide smooth access to the highest notes. With its high-grade yellow brass and ribbed post construction, the AS300 is built to go the distance as you advance in your studies, until you’re ready to step up to an intermediate horn. Double-braced low C, B, and Bb keys prevent torquing to ensure solid seating of the big pads on these low keys. And lastly, the Tromana AS300 student alto saxophone is finished in a beautiful, durable lacquer finish that will look amazing on the recital stage.
