Son has played with top six players (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

saxophonists

'players' is the definition.
(saxophonist is a kind of player)

'son has played with top six' is the wordplay.
'played with' is an anagram indicator.
'son'+'has'='sonhas'
'top'+'six'='topsix'
'sonhas' mixed up with 'topsix' can make 'SAXOPHONISTS'.

(Another definition for saxophonists that I've seen is " Musicians".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
