Na czym grają znani saksofoniści?
Szukając własnego, niepowtarzalnego brzmienia warto spróbować różnych ustników. Zwykli saksofoniści nie mają jednak częstych możliwości testowania różnych modeli profesjonalnych ustników, nie mówiąc już o ich różnej numeracji. W poszukiwaniach przydatna może być poniższa tabela – zestawienie muzyków i ustników, których oni używają.
