| | Description | Cecilio 2Series saxophones are the perfect instruments for the student musicians and a great addition to any level player's arsenal. The large bore makes it easy for young players to get a great, full bodied sound and the fast action keys allow for easy playability for all players. The tone is deep and rich with even intonation throughout the full range. Each instrument is assembled with over 300 hand crafted parts that are all made exclusively by Cecilio. There are no off the shelf parts. Every saxophone is play tested at Cecilio's factory and re-tested at their Los Angeles distribution center to ensure that their high quality standards are met. This is why thousands of instructors have approved these saxophones. All of Cecilio's 2Series saxophones come with a newly upgraded plush lined, nylon covered hard case and include a neck strap, a cleaning swab, a polishing cloth, an extra box of reeds (size 2.5"), a polishing cloth, and a pair of white gloves to keep your instruments spot free when not being played. They offer a variety of stunning finish and key options to satisfy anyone's desire. All of this is making Cecilio saxophones one of the most sought after instruments in the market | |

By John B.
This saxophone is really beautiful. I really liked how Cecilio made instruments in different colors so I chose this black one. It isn't actually jet black; it has a kind of silvery polish, which really just makes it look better. Although you are probably more concerned about the sound. I'm not a professional, but I have listened to alot of saxophones. I read alot of reviews about Cecilio saxophones before I bought it, and they were mostly mixed, but I think I got my money's worth. Now if you've been searching extensively for a "good" saxophone sound, price, and all, you've probably already heard about Selmer, Yamaha S23, etc. brands. They probably are really good; i've never played them though. For what I saw they were priced really high, like the cheapest one I could find at Music and Arts was [...] just for the saxophone. This Cecilio made me happy, with sound and appearance. Seriously, if you like having oddly colored instruments to keep your originality, this brand is for you. A pro or music teacher probably could critique the sound better than I could, me being only a 16 year old, but I think it was really good and loud. If you want a good sound just get another mouthpiece and different brand reeds. That's what I did(Yamaha 4C, I heard it's a good starter). Coming up to only $539 with a case, gloves, cloth, and of course a beautiful saxophone to me was a big steal. I bought a teach yourself book, a 4C mouthpiece, and Extra reeds with the saxophone and the price was still lower than that sax at Music and Arts. For Beginners like me especially, I really recommend this product. Of course I haven't had it for very long yet. Time could prove it's price, but I'm hoping if I take care of it and clean it after playing it'll last. Again the color is beautiful, and the sound is nice and sharp. About the lacquered ones, I heard it starts to chaff off or something, that's why I got nickel plated. Just do research before you buy, but don't listen to everyone. If you like this and want to see more Cecilio has a website that helped me on my search. (I am not a representative and will not get payed for saying this) Just thought I'd say xD.
[...]
I hope this review helps, and that like me you play music because it's fun and it relaxes you. You probably can tell I really like how it looks, I even stare at it, ha ha.
