TJ The Horn Tenor Saxophone

The original TJ 'Horn' with updated design!

Media:

Debuting in 2019 and inspired by the original, award-winning TJ ‘Horn’ sax design from the late 1980s and early 90's, this saxophone has been thoughtfully engineered for enhanced ergonomics.

Adhering to our unwavering commitment to quality design and manufacturing, this saxophone is crafted from premium materials and undergoes a meticulous quality assurance process at our technical workshops in Lenham (U.K), overseen by our dedicated team of technicians. From there, it travels through our global network of TJ instrument distributors, ultimately reaching your local music dealer.

Slick key-work – a smooth running action of the keys allows the player to get around the instrument quickly
Free blowing – Allowing the student to not only get a great sound out of the sax but to give ease of use over all octaves too.
Solid structure - Built on the ribbed construction that allows superb durability without adding too much weight

Why do we not have prices on our website?

We do not sell our instruments directly to musicians. Instead we sell our Trevor James saxophones via our international network of specialist distributors. The details of the TJ representatives in your area can found here .

Sax Assembly Guide

Put the neck strap around your neck.
Take the main body of the sax from its case holding it firmly by the bell.
Hook the neck strap on to the ring positioned about half way down the back of the body.
Ensure the neck screw is loosened and insert the crook, which should line up with the neck strap ring.
Tighten the screw so that the crook is secure.
Apply a little cork grease to the cork (re-do once a week) and push the mouthpiece on to the cork with the opening facing downwards.

It is vital that when you have finished playing your instrument that you either clean it correctly or put it away in it’s case or place the saxophone on to a saxophone stand. Most of the repair damage we see in our workshops comes from players who have simply laid their saxophone down on a chair whilst they have ‘nipped’ out for a coffee or for lunch. Saxophones can be easily damaged!

Sax slings

All our included sax slings come with a non metal sax hook attached. The choice of sax slings is vast however we recommed you do not use a sax sling with a bare metal hook (unless it has a non metaillic coating over it) as over a period of time, the metal hook could possibly cause some wear to the sling ring which is located on the rear of the saxophone.
