It plays like a dream, with precise intonation and robust projection that gets an assist from the horn’s oversized bell and rolled tone holes. It includes Eastman’s superb “S” neck with a larger bore taper for a more open, free-blowing sound. Playability is excellent, with highly responsive, precision keywork.

Although a subject of debate among experienced saxophonists, players who favor horns so equipped cite the immediacy with which their notes are triggered and an enhanced weight, width, and spread to the sound that is particularly pronounced in the low range. One benefit of rolled tone holes that’s not debatable is longer pad life, courtesy of the larger surface area they offer for the pads to make contact with. This will save you costly and time-consuming trips to the repair shop. Seating precisely against this horn’s rolled tone holes are specially treated leather pads that provide a reliably leak-free, airtight seal. Double arms on the low keys help those big pads to seat accurately and consistently, providing a reassuring, rock-solid feel in the way they articulate and produce your notes.Premium, high-performance features Working in concert with the 52nd Street baritone’s metal resonators is a hand-hammered, oversized bell with a prominent flare that helps to focus and project the sound while enhancing brightness and punch. A hand-hammered bell, a feature found on many premium pro horns, assists in delivering focused and impactful bass tones while opening up the horn’s overall tonality. Naturally, the EBS652 is equipped with a high F# key and an adjustable thumb rest. With its smoothly ergonomic key layout and responsive action, the 52nd Street baritone provides a nice, crisp snap in response to your fingering, which you’ll certainly appreciate when executing fast, demanding passages! These advanced features join forces to make the EBS652 a high-performance, value-packed standout among saxophones in its class.Eastman saxophones: the best of vintage and modern There’s a reason some of the most coveted saxophones today are vintage models. Pricey and hard to come by, these horns are revered for their huge sound and the prestige of playing one. But technology and materials science has come a long way in the last half century, enabling uncompromising precision that was unimaginable back in the day. Established in 1992, Eastman makes saxophones that give you the best of vintage and modern instruments by blending traditional old-world artisanal craftsmanship with cutting-edge computer-assisted design and manufacturing methods. The company’s fastidious attention to detail is manifested in the meticulous keywork, hand-hammered bells, and rolled tone holes of their acclaimed saxophones, which are embraced by leading artists and educators alike. Eastman offers a full line of innovative woodwind and brass instruments that deliver exceptional value at every level, from student to professional.
