It's truly awesome for doing jazz and big brass band mock-ups. I'm sure it would be hard to find a jazz band who'd have a Contrabass sax handy though, but you have those extended range saxes which are really nice! Garritan has gone to great lengths to ensure that this instrument is very playable and I must say from hearing the demos it certainly is playable!
In saying this, as with any computer-based instrument, nothing beats real jazz/big band players, but this comes pretty close.

Ditto here; waiting to get my hands on it.
I've been desperate to find a soft-mallet vibraphone sampleset and they don't give any expamples of it on the JABB demos, so if anyone gets it and could post even a few notes played on it so I could tell what it sounds like, I'd appreciate it....
