Sax is actually very easy to learn. Difficult to master, though, just so you know. Just make sure to get a good one. Reputable companies are: Yamaha, Keilworth (Mostly pro instruments from these guys) Selmer, Selmer Paris, Jupiter, King.
Cheers man.

Phoned up today, seems nowhere in the city does sax lessons, it'll involve a fair bit of travelling for each lesson but I figure it'll be worth it. I'm gonna have a couple lessons then if I take to it will be looking to buy one, your advice should come in pretty useful.
