I am delighted with this baritone sax, The Thomann TBS-150 for the money is great. To be fair it is the second bari, As the first one sent had a few minor cosmetic problems & the octave mechanism was a bit stiff, But they replaced it no bother, I love it! There is a video on Youtube from Better Sax - a guy called Jay Metcalfe reviews a bari sax made by a company in China, I think they must make them for Thomann, & they are identical, He really rates them, check it out.

Very pleased with this baritone.
Couldn't be happier. Did a lot of research first before I ordered this baritone sax from Thomann (TBS150).
Seems that my calculated gamble worked out like a charm.
This sax is of outstanding quality. The key work is not Selmer?s, nor Yanagisawa?s, but not so far off of the key work of my tenor.
I needs getting used to, but the sound is fantastic, intonation is great and it is of absolute staggering quality.
It's hard to understand that such quality for such a low price is even feasible.
Well, maybe because the case is of poor quality? The lining of the accessories compartment is broken. Looks a mess.
The velvet feels harsh and the foam hard. It also smells kinda petroleum like. The outside of the casing is doable.
But the sax itself is gorgeous. I had a baritone 10 years ago, sold it, because I couldn?t get used to the left pinky cluster (old Buesscher).
This one has modern key work, is mechanically sound and plays beautiful in the complete range. No leaks whatsoever from factory setup. That?s truly amazing.
I have no idea how long the regulation will hold or if corks will start to fall off. But for now, best buy ever.
And thanks to Thomann for the quick delivery.
