Jupiter Eb Alto Saxophone JAS700

A well-made student horn with advanced features, the Jupiter JAS700 alto saxophone is an ideal instrument to start beginners off on their musical journey. Students love the JAS700 for its easy playability, great intonation, and full, punchy sound; band directors love it for its rock-solid construction, which keeps it in the classroom and not in the shop. And parents will certainly appreciate its impressive value! Boasting high-quality materials, state-of-the-art construction, and excellent performance, this impressive horn belies its affordable price tag. The Jupiter JAS700 alto sax comes with everything your student needs to hit the ground running, including a mouthpiece and ligature, accessories, and an attractive, rugged ABS case to protect your investment.

Responsive and easy to play

The JAS700’s bore taper and bell are precisely shaped to enhance projection, inspiring confidence from your student’s first notes. It is responsive and easy to blow while supporting the development of proper airflow control and embouchure. As saxophones can be unwieldy in the hands of younger beginners, Jupiter has paid particular attention to the keywork to ensure fluid ease of movement across the instrument’s full range, which extends to high F#. Adjustability is built into the design, so you can customize your JAS700 to fit your personal preferences for an optimal ergonomic playing experience. The contoured left-hand table keys include a tilting Bb rocker arm for comfortable fingering and added agility for more advanced players. Other features include an elegantly engraved Jupiter logo and a beautiful, durable lacquer finish that will look amazing on the recital stage.

Packed with performance-enhancing features

Featuring a host of performance-enhancing details more commonly found on intermediate saxes, the Jupiter JAS700 is designed to be accessible to beginning band students. Its ergonomic key layout and easy action, powered by blue steel springs (the professional standard for durable, perfectly tensioned keywork), are perfect for younger players, while giving them room to grow as they refine their fingering technique. Jupiter’s meticulous keywork guarantees consistent, stable seating of the pads to provide a leak-free, airtight fit. The pads are also fitted with plastic tone boosters that enhance resonance to deliver a big, vibrant, and commanding tone that brings your notes to life.

Jupiter: guaranteed through graduation

A staple in classrooms everywhere, Jupiter band instruments are beloved by music teachers for good reason. Since 1980, the company has built high-quality band instruments for students of every development level. Innovations such as the Sona-Pure saxophone neck annealing process, Waveline flute headjoint, and patented Ergonomic trombone are but three examples of the company’s player-centered design philosophy. Leveraging time-honored handcrafted design methodologies alongside cutting-edge modern manufacturing processes, each Jupiter instrument is inspected for quality throughout the manufacturing process, ensuring that it can endure bumps and bruises as easily as it can navigate technical passages. With Jupiter’s player-first focus, anyone is welcome to embark upon an exciting and fulfilling musical journey through high school graduation and beyond.
