Blessings saxophone, Yamaha and Antigua Winds
What can you tell me about Blessings tenor saxophones? My 12 year old is joining the band this fall and has picked out the tenor. I have seen and almost purchased a like new looking one that was listed for $600 but my husband thinks we should consider a different brand. I have since noticed that reviews and info on Blessings are hard to find and you can't find many for sale and the quality and resale might not be very good. What do you think? It looks like Blessings does not even make them any more. Would he be better off with an older Yamaha 23 or a Yamaha Vito. I understand that the yamahas do not have the F# key while the Blessings I have seen does but I am not sure if that is necessary anyway. I am very unsure of what brand to buy or how much I should spend since he is so young and just a beginner. Antigua Winds makes the cheapest new saxophone I can find but I don't know much about that brand either. Any suggestions? Thank!
