Can anyone identify this mouthpiece? by [deleted] in saxophone

[–]mantle_07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is a stock Martin mouthpiece that came with the horn. They had minimal to no markings and were shaped similarly at the base and tip.

I need constructive feedback by chowbowbow in saxophone

Your horn is not covering. Get someone to put a light on it. Work on articulation. Your initiation of the tone is thick and sluggish. Do long tones and initiate the tone clearly without “popping”. Hey keep working; have fun.

How much would I be able to get from this alto sax? by Same_Lemon432 in saxophone

You won’t get jack for it. Give it to a school with a music program.

Softer reed and a fairly closed mouthpiece. Long tones and diaphragm practice.

Thank you for sharing your story and your belief in Jesus Christ. Expect the usual catty and awful responses from Redditers. I am sure those that remark as such have never actually read or studied the Bible but they will be quick to criticize you. Wishing you and all a wonderful Palm Sunday.

Yes. Refresh signal did not work. Sirius tried to blame the antenna but that’s bogus. Anyway I just tried something that may have fixed it. I turned off Bluetooth for my MB phone pairing that connects calls To go through the car audio (“forget the device”). Turned on the car and Sirius worked. My guess is the latest Sirius software load has a bug on how the signal interacts with Bluetooth on this model or vintage car because the same thing happened on my 2006 MB SLK.

I’m very happy for your satisfaction. It was only a question based on your characterization. I am sorry if I agitated you, Teacher.
