As a alto sax player whos been playing on a $200 "Glory" amazon alto for the past 5 or so years, these things will last you as long as you dont toss them around and swab them. I currently use vandoren reeds with a vandoren mouthpiece. I'm also auditioning for my states allstate band and am planning on upgrading cause the sax is starting to show its price-age value.

I’m a Clarinet main but I also play Tenor sax and my brother plays Alto and I’ve learned that it definitely can be the instrument that effects your playing, because on my tenor the part that the octave key lifts up sometimes goes to the side and gets stuck so then I squeak if I play lower notes because it’s lifted up and my brother’s sax got dropped and he had to send it to the music shop to get it repaired and they sent him a loner sax but this loner sax is like falling apart so he’s having difficulty playing (he’s a beginner too so it doesn’t help him) I’ve also had an experience with my Clarinet where I couldn’t get a sound out and we thought it was the mouthpiece and I got a new mouthpiece and I still couldn’t play, eventually I figured out that I had needed 3 reeds instead of the 2 1/2 reeds because my embouchure had developed very fast, so yes your instrument can effect your playing just as much as you can yourself

This would also be great as a marching saxophone! You go to high school marching competitions and those kids leave their instruments lying on the concrete all over the parking lot... it makes me absolutely cringe. My daughter's first flute defaulted to her marching/pep band flute when she upgraded. I got my son an amazing deal on an alto sax from a pawn shop on ebay and I don't really want him marching with it, but I also don't think he'll need to upgrade at all during high school. Maybe I'll grab one of these when the time comes and not have a heart attack when I see it on the ground, haha.
