Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
P. Mauriat's PMSA-185 is an intermediate alto saxophone with a yellow brass, fully ribbed body, gold lacquer, and hand-engraved bell. Leather pads, blue steel springs, and the designed key mechanism focus the instrument around airtight pad sealing and fast, even key return. Its palm keys, adjustable thumb hook and thumb rest, and contoured left-hand pinky table give the player several ergonomic adjustment points. A PM Traveler II case is included for transport and storage.
