My friends, "what is the best choice" is too ambiguous a statement for us to really know what he meant. However if you look at his last sentence, he says, "I need to find a <i>decent</i> saxophone." Is it more likely that he would use the word "decent" to differentiate between sizes or brands? 9 times out of 10, that means brands. But at least this way he'll know both brand and size, and let's leave it at that.
And Joseph, the phrase "I am sure you know a little about saxaphones and will continue to learn and increase your knowledge in the future" if not disrespectful, is certainly belittling. My advice, learn to spell saxophone before you start derogating the knowledge of people about whom you obviously know nothing.
Also, "he" is the default neutral gender in English, so I have no reservation about using that word until coldhouse feels it necessary to clarify his sex.

But I put it where it belonged too.
