Common Questions About the Eastman EAS850
How does the EAS850 fit within Eastman's professional alto saxophone lineup?
The EAS850 is listed by Eastman as a professional Rue Saint-Georges Eb alto saxophone. Compared with the EAS650, the EAS850 adds the DS mechanism and includes both R and S necks, giving advanced players more setup flexibility within the Rue Saint-Georges family.

The two supplied necks allow a player to compare response, resistance, and tonal color without changing the instrument itself. That matters for saxophonists who tailor their setup for different rooms, ensembles, mouthpieces, and repertoire.
What kind of player should consider the Rue Saint-Georges EAS850?
This model is best suited to a player who wants a professional alto saxophone with modern mechanism, flexible neck options, and enough versatility for ensemble, solo, teaching, and commercial use.
