The saxophone uses a tip single reed like a clarinet, but with a round or square vacuum chamber inside. The body of the saxophone is effectively conical, giving it properties sound like an oboe. However, unlike the oboe, whose tube is a single cone, most saxophones have a distinctive bell curve. Soprano Saxophone soprano and right are more common than curved, and very few straight alto and tenor saxophones were made, as novelties.

How are they made? All saxophones are made of brass. Other experiments were conducted as well as wood. After construction of the saxophone, varnish is applied. However, manufacturers have an option to plate the saxophone with silver or gold to make it look better quality and provide better sound quality.
