what'd you start on?

what was the first type of sax you played(e.g. alto, tenor, etc)?
Bariman

I initially started on tenor, but within 3 months moved to bari. Been there ever since.

I started on alto and played only it for four years, then I decided to move on to a bari, played that for a year before I picked up tenor, and have been doing the alto for seven, the bari for four, and the tenor for three Cool

After playing trumpet for half a year in grade seven Embarassed, I switched to alto sax. I've been playing it since then for five years and counting. Cool

Alto, of Course!

I've been playing alto for six years, I've played tenor for two, but If I was going to pick my favorite, alto would reign supreme!
Jacob

Started on alto when I was about 14 (middle of 8th grade). When I was 16 (sophomore in high school) I switched to tenor, and have been playing it ever since (so about 3 years now I guess). A month or so ago I added soprano to the mix.

I don't play much alto anymore, though. When I do, it's classical. Tenor is my main instrument, which I use primarily for jazz.

Btw, check out the link in my sig if you want to hear a couple clips of my playing.
Tully

First tenor, then soprano, followed by alto. Played flute before anything, though.

Played Yamaha 62II Alto 1st, then Yamaha YSS-675 Soprano and then my Yamaha YTS-875 Tenor.

I started playing the flute when I was nine. Three years later I took up alto.
