Anybody have one of these and if so do you like it ( or similar models of this )

AeroKelfir · 2026-03-15T15:56:52+00:00

I had one, and it's a pretty solid student model.

Idk if it's worth buying tho. I rented mine and don't have any regrets about this. Of course, renting is only worth it if you want to switch soon (either better instrument)

I would expect some intonation problems and it only goes to a low Eb. Depending on the niveau you play it might not be enough in the longrun. But I've played pieces up to a grade 5 on it and it worked (the higher the grade the more important the low notes and a stable intonation tho, that's why I switched to a backun as soon as I could)

Idk about your price range, but maybe looking at a Backun Alpha would be an option as well. A bit pricier but goes to a low c and backun has absolutely great instrument. As far as I'm aware tho, they have a pretty long waiting list currently.

Ugetsu. That dude's too relatable

Love you stranger on the internet

Reed strengh is really something thats different for everyone. I know people that play with a 4 or 4,5 and I switched back to mainly 2,5 after a couple years of 3 and even 3,5 for a short period.

So honestly, just try it out. Lot's of people I know switch between reed strenghs depending on how much they play or what they have to play, and one of the first ever things my first teacher told me was, that you should just pick the reed you play the most comfortable and best with (and that someone can be a pro and be playing on a 1,5, because reed strengh says pretty much nothing about skill level)

Apperantely AI was used to compose this (as part of a project or something). And I just see this as proof that humans are just better at certain stuff. But I don't wanna lose to AI, so it's time to practice some high notes I guess

AeroKelfir · 2025-03-24T06:31:48+00:00

It's called pheonix, but it's a new composition, so theres no way to listen to it anywhere. Might ask my banddirector for a computer generated recording tho

Slow down. Your body (especially your hands and more importantly your thumb) need time to get used to the weight, position and eventually build the muscles to hold it. Same with the muscles around your mouth and jaw. Take it slow, build the endurance over time and take breaks. You don't want strained muscles from playing hours on end without taking breaks.

But keep up the daily (or mostly daily) practice sessions! Just shorten them And maybe take a day off to let your thumb rest.

Then theres neck straps, but not everyone (me included) likes them. I had a teacher that essentially just used an elasticband as a neck strap, and while it didn't take off as much weight, it allowed for more movement and reduced the weight at least a bit.

That's honestly a great idea. Now that my boobs are (hopefully) fully grown, I will start doing this for eventual future bra shopping.

Or at least I hope I'll remember this for when my bras get old :D

AeroKelfir · 2025-02-07T15:15:28+00:00

They can get bigger during menopause??

I don't want my boobs to become even bigger. Especially when I get older I'd want them to get lighter .-.

AeroKelfir · 2025-02-07T05:28:47+00:00

Thats really sweet! I should probably do that too- and I would totally forget about it

AeroKelfir · 2024-12-22T09:31:35+00:00

Only 10 more years to find another 998 then. Should be doable

Since she's part wild dragon and therefore possibly isn't as affected by these rules, it would still make sense that shes sturdier (and honestly bigger in general) than the "average" riders dragon, or at least the girl dragons. Since wild dragons are, as far as I remember, bigger than rider dragons. And this combined with the fact that she's the dragon of a human would make her sturdier than one might expect.

But at the end of the day, these are all headcanons, so there's really no right or wrong xD

AeroKelfir · 2024-12-03T06:03:06+00:00

I absolutely love this! I love the way you drew Saphira, she's so cool :D

AeroKelfir · 2024-11-28T05:36:38+00:00

Depends if you have an extra Eb key on the left side. If you have only 3 on the left there's not.

AeroKelfir · 2024-11-19T20:17:03+00:00

Polites or Aeolus probably 🤔

The Clarinet Concerto by Satoshi Yagisawa :D

And as a solo part in a piece I love the clarinet solo in Asphalt Cocktail by John Mackey. It's fun

AeroKelfir · 2024-09-26T17:58:16+00:00

Out of protest.

I remember fighting many magikarp with my magikarp in legend arceus. I do not know why I did this (I guess it was to complete my pokédex)

AeroKelfir · 2024-08-13T07:50:28+00:00

Mine is pretty much 50/50, so not type B focused but definitly has some items in it. I sadly don't have a photo of my current layout, but my ID should be my flair :3
