The best choice is playable, comfortable, realistic for the student's level, and matched to current goals rather than simply the cheapest option.

The basic setup is a working saxophone, mouthpiece, ligature, reeds, neck strap, reliable internet, a device with a camera, and a quiet lesson space. Many beginners begin with alto saxophone, then consider tenor saxophone once hand size, breath control, and goals are clearer, while the student builds confidence one assignment at a time.
