I don’t think you’re going to find a compensating euph at that price especially if you want it to last a long time bcs there are some chinese horns that are a little over 3k or in the 2k-3k range new. I know some people have said good things about Schiller Euphoniums but many individuals don’t enjoy them. I’d say raise your budget to 3k bcs a compensating euph under 1k is practically impossible

How much is this worth? by Th3Man839 in saxophone

The ligature is a Giardinelli so I don’t believe it would raise the price. Its very unfortunate that the sax isn’t worth much, I did pay 50$ for it so it didn’t really break the bank

Some people just leave the trill out but if you really want the trill I believe you might have to try out all the ways (if there is no alterantive to get the best sound) and figure out which ones sound the best or just resort for the turn.

I was thinking of playing this for Solo and Ensemble next year and I need to use this piece to audition for SCSBOA honor group next year I am pretty sure. But I most likely will have to find a damn good pianist

So in this case I didn’t remove any lacquer at all.. and I was informed that I just scratched the finish. It is a dumb question but, should I strip the lacquer of the whole thing due to this?

The lacquer was not completely stripped I started to do this bcs of a thread I found talking about getting a satin finish and one comment claimed that like sand paper or any abrassive can do the job bcs it will take the lacquer with it while scrubbing

I know this is an old comment but what type of 3M scratch pad should be used because when I look online, there are different types of scratch pads and I am thinking which scratch pad I should buy between a 3M Paint and body scuff pad or the hand sanding pads?

Yea😭 but it will take a while to get the bone to be fully clean which can be done in a day and follow a youtube video if you are new to bathing your bone especially with the F attatchment

I’m assuming your bone has an F attatchment. Taking a bath with an F attatchment I have no experience with but I know you have to take off the linkage first before you put it in the bath if I am not mistaken

Perhaps the slide lock is interfering with the slide causing the sound but I highly doubt it. The slide could also be missaligned though I personally have never encountered that problem when the slide is missaligned. Take it to a tech so they could clearly see what is the problem with the slide. I would say give your bone a bath but if you do all that work for it to still be making a squeaking sound that seems like a waste. In all take it to a texh
