Who the EBS453 Baritone Saxophone Is For
The EBS453 is suited to advancing students, adult ensemble musicians, and working doublers seeking a low A baritone without moving into Eastman's professional series. Its extended range supports modern concert-band, jazz-ensemble, saxophone-choir, and commercial arrangements, while the reinforced low-key mechanism addresses an area that receives considerable use on a baritone saxophone.
Common Questions About the Eastman EBS453
Where does the EBS453 fit within Eastman's saxophone lineup?
Eastman places the EBS453 in its Performance series, above the student EBS251 and below the professional EBS650 and EBS652 baritone models. It is intended for musicians who require a low A baritone and more developed keywork than a basic student instrument.
What does the low A range offer a baritone saxophonist?
The low A key extends the instrument one semitone below low Bb. That note is frequently required in contemporary concert-band, jazz-ensemble, saxophone-choir, pit-orchestra, and commercial writing.
How is the lower keywork supported?
The EBS453 uses double braces on the low C, B, Bb, and A keys. This reinforcement is intended to support the long key arms and larger mechanisms associated with a low A baritone saxophone.
