I have a yamaha saxophone, it is one of their intermediate ranges (I forgot which one since I am living overseas). Sound quality is excellent. I play classical saxophone, and it produces this great warm tone (I have no idea how to describe it) that is excellent for this purpose. I am not sure about jazz though.

My brother in law is a jazz sax player (tenor) and plays a Yamaha. I don't know the model but he says it's great and punches well above it's weight class considering what it cost him.
