In this video, I unbox and play-test the BetterSax EAS112 against a Yamaha Custom EXII and a Mark VI. I have concluded that the EAS112 a really solid horn that feels and sounds better than many horns I've tried that are several thousands of dollars. The sound out of it is very powerful and focused. I'm genuinely shocked it's only $900. It honestly may be the best student/intermediate horn on the market.

I have been a bit inactive due to circumstances that clouded me mentally. I am now out of those circumstances, and I feel my healthy mindset coming back. I am going to commit myself to posting once a week again. I will strive to post every Wednesday at 10am! See you then.
