Developed exclusively with acclaimed saxophonist Bob Mintzer, Eastman’s design team has pushed the 52nd Street family of saxophones to a new standard of precision, elegance, and sound. With Bob’s insight into professional playing preferences, Eastman has created the horn Bob dreamed of: the ETS852 52nd Street tenor saxophone.
The ETS852 tenor includes defining features of the 52nd Street saxophone. Rolled-style tone holes, a larger bell, and an unlacquered finish contribute heavily to the classic American saxophone sound concept. A big, fat sound with indisputable core fills any venue in which its played. These design elements are expertly paired with the patented DS Mechanism—the keywork design that provides players with unrivaled stability and elegance. The ETS852 also introduces the all new “M” neck, designed specifically for Bob Mintzer's playing style. This broad neck opens the horn and leaves you feeling that the instrument isn’t even there – it's just you, and your expression of music.
