“I am absolutely blown away by the RS Berkeley Virtuoso saxophone. First off, the matte finish and the detailed, intricate engraving all over the horn is incredibly striking and the craftsmanship put into making the horn is first rate. It is a solid horn top to bottom that’s built to last.
Secondly, that sound! The horn projects extremely well in all registers with a full, medium-bright timbre, that switches seamlessly between straight-ahead jazz, pop music, and rock, and has an altissimo register absolutely squeals! The intonation is as good as I’d think was possible on a tenor.
I’ve played two of the most famous saxophones ever produced, both a King Super 20 and a Selmer Mark VI extensively throughout my career. After just a few weeks with my RS Berkeley Virtuoso I can positively say that it’s a superior horn to both. The horn’s state-of-the-art ergonomic key design mirrors that of my Selmer and projects with a full clarity of tone that rivals that famous King sound. Just about every musician I’ve played with since I switched to my RS Berkeley Virtuoso has made a point to tell me how great the horn sounds and looks.
Whether you’re an ambitious student studying music or a hardened pro looking for your next axe, look no further than the RS Berkeley Virtuoso! It’s one of the finest tenors I’ve ever played and its considerably more affordable than several of the other horns out there.”
