Professional alto saxophone with a French character
If you are looking for an alto saxophone for demanding playing, the Leblanc LAS 711 AB “Premiere” combines classic French craftsmanship with modern precision. This professional model is made of bronze brass, which the supplied specifications link to a warm, rich sound.
The professional bore and hand-adjusted neck give this Leblanc alto sax responsive tone production. That makes the LAS 711 AB a strong match for advanced saxophonists, conservatory students and professionals who value control, projection and appearance, both on stage and in the studio.
Construction and mechanism of the Leblanc LAS 711 AB
The one-piece hand-hammered bell contributes depth and resonance, while the post-to-rib-to-body construction is aimed at projection and stability. The hand-engraved bell also gives the “Premiere” a refined, premium look in the Aged Brass finish.
For stable intonation, this model includes an F vibration damper and a C# correction mechanism. The underslung octave key supports smooth transitions, and Pisoni Pro pads with metal resonators help provide reliable sealing.
Playing comfort and complete setup
Blue steel needle springs and ergonomic keys give the Leblanc LAS 711 AB a fast action. The adjustable metal right-hand thumb rest helps you fit the instrument more closely to your playing position, which is useful during longer sessions.
This professional alto saxophone comes with a Brilhart mouthpiece and a top-quality BAM backpack case. If you want to try an instrument like this in person first, Magna Music in Roosendaal offers personal advice from staff members who are musicians themselves.
