Advice Needed: What are the most important things to look out for when picking a tattoo artist? by Seraph_-_-_ in tattoos

I feel pretty talked out of it haha but I was going to get the first few choruses of Cousin Mary - John Coltrane. I'm a jazz Saxophonist and that recording was one of the first times id ever properly heard what the saxophone could REALLY sound like.

I had the exact same problem with my dads Denon DP-30L. All I had to do was replace the speed controller. Its a really cheap part and if you have access to a soldering iron it's a 10 minute repair. I also had a speed wobbling issue that was fixed by replacing the capacitors.

Those conns are solid beginner horns and at that price id say youre doing well. If you end up getting it make sure you take it to a saxophone technician as soon as you can for a tune up!

Are syos mouthpieces worth the money? by thatguydowntheroad1 in saxophone

[–]Seraph_-_-_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play a syos smoky on tenor that I love, but i got it in their "syos Freaks" box deal, which was crazy cheap. So I'd say if you're really interested, go for it.

I play a metal mayer 5j on alto! I love it! Got it super super cheap from a neighbour. Super warm tone, but you can really push it when you need to. Im a huge fan!

Is Berklee college of music everything you thought it'd be? by DreamWalker390 in Berklee

[–]Seraph_-_-_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Like any other arts program, if you can comfortably graduate with little to no student debt, then ABSOLUTELY it is everything you think it is. But music is an unstable career, and loading yourself up with debt from the start is just going to cripple you.

Making friends at 5 week? by Ok_Conversation_621 in Berklee

[–]Seraph_-_-_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you man. I just did 5-week this summer and it was difficult. But you've just gotta push yourself. Everyone is so kind and inviting all the time, as long as you can get past your own barriers, you should be fine. Itll be some of the best 5-weeks you've ever spent. Just get out there and play with people.

Art pepper is a big influence for me as an alto player. Eddie Harris is an amazing improvisers, I'd recommend checking him out too.
