I bought the Thomann TSI-350 Sopranino Saxophone on the strength of the previous positive reviews and am very glad to be able to report back that it really is excellent value for money and 'good enough' regardless of you playing ability and the other saxophones in your collection. I have a collection of Selmer Paris SA80ii / Yamaha YTS-475 ii / P Mauriat Le Bravo / Conn-Selmer etc so I am used to good quality instruments, but didn't want to spend too much on a Sopranino because I primarily bought it as a travel saxophone and to play in outdoor tunnels under roads and other strange places in remote locations away from people that have good acoustics that I have found whilst on bike rides or out walking, so I wanted something light and cheap ish but of still good enough quality that I would want to play it and record these free improv sessions, and am pleased to say that this Sopranino fits the bill perfectly. It is a really nice size and weight and feels really good quality for the money. I bought the Selmer SA80 c* mouthpiece and a range of reeds at the same time, and just wanted to point out that the tuning is very sensitive to the position of the tiny mouthpiece on the neck - so watch out for that - pushing the mouthpiece in or out adjusts the centre note which determines if your lower and higher notes are sharp or flat. I thought initially that there was a tuning issue, but there wasn't once I adjusted how far pushed onto the neck the mouthpiece was. Yes, of course, you have to adjust your embouchure when playing, it is not perfect, but it is not bad at all. The sound is really rather nice, not shrill or thin! It can play quietly which is excellent for 'noodling' on around the house because it is so cute and tiny it's nice to have around you. It is not a toy or a cheap Chinese made waste of money though, it is a decent enough instrument to last you unless you are intending to play Sopranino as a specialist, and I add my voice to the many others who would recommend this one. I am very pleased with it. The case is excellent too - lightweight, has plenty of space for things and can be carried in multiple ways making it perfect to travel with which is what I wanted. You can play the Sopranino quietly enough to take to a hotel room to get some practice in whilst on holiday and it is small and light enough to not be a problem carrying it as an additional 'handbag' type of baggage. The only minor annoyance is that the Selmer SA80 c* mouthpiece comes with a Selmer teeth guard pad which is too big for the Sopranino mouthpiece, so the sides protrude which is annoying considering how expensive the mouthpiece is and how cheap a teeth guard is by comparison - you would expect Selmer to have checked that already. So I had to trim it down with scissors and it isn't perfect which is a bit annoying, but apart from that, I am very happy with the purchase and would thoroughly recommend it.
