New to Saxophone

Hi, I'm totally new, but I have the desire to learn and eventually play sax. I'm a Native American Flute player and guitar student. I would like to ask what's a good student saxophone brand? I know Yamaha. Selmer, Bundy are mentioned often, what about others such as Allora and Legacy? Please advise I am saving up to make a purchase. ???? thanks!

    The Yamaha  21 and 23 models are good student horns and they are easy to find used.  The important thing is to get one in good condition.  If you're looking for a new horn, there are good Asian horns sold under brands such as Jupiter, Chateau, Antigua, and Kessler that are more affordable than the more established brands.  If you're shopping among the lesser known brands, stick with reputable dealers who stand by their product.  Some lesser known brands are good and some are terrible.
