I`m thinking about getting an alto sax. Anyone every heard of prestini?

never heard of one

I do not know anything at all about them. The tenors go for about 900 bucks. They say that they are supposed to be decent horns for the money. I personally would not buy one, but that doesn`t mean you can`t.

This is strictly my opinion (and that of many other professional musicians) that LA Sax makes arguably the best horn for your money if you want a great horn that does not have a great price tag. You can get one for the same price that you would spend on this Prestini. The LA Sax is a better horn hands down. You will be shocked at the tone and appearance of these horns.

Let me know if you are interested.....

In other words, read his stuff here
