Why an Artemis Saxophone?
After developing its famous ‘Horn’ range, the Trevor J James company saw the need for a budget saxophone range of superior quality to other instruments then on sale.
Artemis instruments evolved in 1992 when the market requirements for a more budget line of instruments became apparent.
These instruments are set-up and regulated at the Trevor J James workshops alongside the Horn range prior to despatch to its worldwide network of specialist distributors. Many technical innovations, first seen on the Horn, are now in place on the Artemis instruments.
Despite being rather cheaper than the Horn, the Artemis range provides the student with a reliable instrument of good quality construction.
