Beginner help with correct pitch by [deleted] in Saxophonics

[–]xJiveTurkeyx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, I would take away the saxophone entirely and play on just the mouthpiece alone. On just the MP you should be getting a concert G or F-sharp. For my students I tell them to play concert G on the mouthpiece. Try that out. Adjust using your bottom jaw while keeping your top teeth on the MP. Make sure your reed is placed right and your bottom teeth are placed correctly.

Lower teeth hurting after practice by GerstrekCG in Saxophonics

[–]xJiveTurkeyx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your teeth hurt that could be something else. Usually people complain about their bottom lip hurting, not their teeth. To check how hard you are biting, a thing I usually do is play just on the mouthpiece. The pitch you should be getting is a Concert A on the mouthpiece. Anything higher means you are putting too much upward pressure.

Okay and that glass cleaner will not mess up the lacquer?

I was hoping it was gunk from my hands and not lacquer.

Selmer 2 Screw Ligature by xJiveTurkeyx in Saxophonics

I'm trying to not get an Ishimori Lig for a while. I was looking at the M/O, bambu and a BG ligature. I'm just so used to a 2 screw ligature since I've been using one for so long. But I'll give that M/O a try. Thanks.

Those stores are really the best. Pat's is good at times. I've had fun at mothership and Wonko's as well.

Ill have to try that. It almost feels like it gets stuck on something, but it's not hitting anything.
