I've been in music all my life, and I confess that I've never heard the term "treble Saxophone"
I have been involved in the repair of wodwind most of my life and served in an army band for 7 and a half years including boys service. There are two saxophones that I have heard of that are "abnormal". The first was the " HIGH " sax which I believe to have been in C. The second of these was the TREBLE sax which I have seen and had a fundamental lowest note of G concert. There are examples of this which are generally regarded as children's saxophones. I have also heard of a sax in F but never seen one.

∙ 11y agoI have always believed that treble was the same range as soprano, but trebles were young singers (usually up to puberty) and sopranos were teens/adults. So treble would equal 'boy soprano', etc.

What is a treble saxophone?
There is no such thing as a treble saxophone. From high to low, it goes like this: sopranino, soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, bass, contra-bass. Saxophones also have different pitches within those groupings. For example, the alto is usually in E flat. There is also the F, and C. However, I believe all saxes below the baritone are played in the bass clef, which would make all higher saxophones until the alto treble instrument, smeaning they play in the treble clef. I am not sure about soprano and sopranino.
