Introducing the BetterSax Session Alto, the saxophone created for players who are ready to step up. Building on the reputation and popularity of the Classic line, the Session was developed from the ground up with enhancements in every area—tone, projection, ergonomics, and finish—while staying true to BetterSax’s core mission: delivering world-class instruments at accessible prices.

Performs like a pro, priced like an intermediate, the BetterSax Session competes directly with saxophones twice its price. Whether you’re playing jazz, classical, or pop, this versatile instrument delivers a focused, resonant tone and the professional precision every saxophonist dreams of.

Designed for Saxophonists, By Saxophonists

At BetterSax, we’re saxophonists first and foremost. The Session saxophone is the result of listening to the community and creating an instrument that meets the demands of today’s players. Whether you’re a professional or stepping up from a student model, the Session offers a saxophone you can rely on at a price that’s remarkable.

What Sets the Session Apart

  • Exceptional Tone Quality: The Session neck features a reengineered bore, tone ring, internally tapered tenon, and a tone-enhancement plate at a weak nodal area. These refinements deliver quicker response, improved intonation, and added resonance across all registers. The redesigned body, bow, and bell feature a slightly wider bore taper, complemented by a redesigned tone hole system for accurate intonation and enhanced flexibility and projection. This results in a tonal character that leans toward the French tradition. The Session produces a warm, resonant sound with a focused core, making it perfect for all music styles.
  • Refined Body & Bell Construction: Unlike the Classic, which uses post-to-body construction, the Session employs advanced mini-ribbed construction which retains its response but adds greater stability and tonal depth. A brass rim wire around the bell adds projection and carries the full spectrum of its sound to the back of the performance hall.
  • Professional Ergonomics & Playability: Every detail was designed with the player in mind: genuine mother-of-pearl key touches, blue steel springs for a quick and light action, and Pisoni Pro pads with metal resonators for enhanced durability and response. The custom ergonomic right-hand thumb rest, which is investment cast for precision and expertly sculpted, offers a comfort level that makes it hard to go back once experienced. To ensure long-term safety, the Session also features a slightly thicker and much stronger nickel-silver neckstrap ring, providing much greater resistance to neckstrap hooks wearing through over time.
  • Premium Finishes & Custom Engraving: Choose from three distinctive finishes: Matte Black, Matte Dark Gold, or Copper-Bronze. Each Session features intricate custom hand engraving developed in-house by artist Marcy Lyzun.
  • Upgraded Case & Accessories: Every Session ships with a premium professional backpack case featuring a molded memory foam nest, ballistic nylon exterior, and extra accessory compartments. Included is a professional BetterSax by Meyer mouthpiece, created in collaboration with JJ Babbitt. Modeled after our favorite vintage Meyer, each hard rubber mouthpiece is hand-finished, vulcanized, and personally play-tested by a BetterSax team member to ensure quality and consistency.

BetterSax Session Alto Features:

  • Enhanced Body Design: Advanced mini-rib construction and a wider bore taper give the Session added stability and projection, with a sound that fills the room.
  • Upgraded Neck: A reengineered neck with an internally tapered tenon ensures smooth airflow, quick response, and improved intonation across all registers.
  • Premium Pads & Resonators: Fitted with Pisoni Pro pads and metal resonators for a stable seal, reliable durability, and a projecting, resonant tone.
  • Extra Resonance & Strength: The mini-rib construction, brass rim wire around the bell, metal thumbrests, and neck tone plates add projection, focus, and stability to your sound.
  • Comfortable Ergonomics: The entire keywork design, including the brass custom investment-cast right-hand thumb rest are sculpted for comfort.
  • Built for Reliability: The Session saxophone line features cold-forged keywork, ensuring strength, reliability, and durability for daily use. A nickel-silver suspension ring provides a secure connection for any neck strap, resisting the common wear often seen on other instruments.
  • Responsive Keywork: Pisoni blued steel spring tensions are dialed in for a light and fast key action to reduce fatigue and tension.
  • Custom Engraving: Elegant hand engraving, designed in-house by Marcy Lyzun, makes every horn visually stunning.
  • Striking Finishes: Available in three professional finishes—Matte Black, Matte Dark Gold, and Copper Bronze—each with a distinctive look for the stage.
  • Professional Mouthpiece Included: Includes a vintage-inspired, hand-finished BetterSax by Meyer mouthpiece (tip opening 5), developed in collaboration with JJ Babbitt, hand crafted in USA, and carefully inspected and playtested by a member of the BetterSax team to ensure consistent quality.
  • Aux. Keys: Includes High F# and auxiliary front F keys
  • Road-Ready Case: Ships with a premium Session backpack case featuring a molded memory foam interior, rugged nylon exterior, and ample storage space.

Small and compact

I didn’t expect it to be small - which is better, I think. Should have read the info. Photo in comparison with the 2024 Nursing Drug Handbook I recently purchased.

A Glimpse of the Father's Love
A compelling book that allows the reader to connect with the genuine love of the Father. Until we understand this unconditional love, we stay stuck in our humanness filled with the wounds and pain of a broken world. This book provides a path to healing and definitely worth reading!
