This is my sax.

Hello, everyone.
"This is my sax."
Is using sax natural for native speakers instead of saying saxophone?
Thank you.

Quite natural!

Thank you very much, Stez..

Yep! Yikes. People shorten it and say "sax". I played alto for about 6 years in grade/high school.

President Clinton famously plays sax.

Why do you ask, BagSS?

Thank you so much, Perpend.
I asked because my student showed me her saxophone today. She said its her sax.
Just wondering if it is natural to say sax for the native speakers. Now I know.
Thanks again for your reply.

Yes, very natural.
