lownote Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) In the unlikely event you're feeling horny and don't know where to go for help, may I recommend Nigel McGill's Sax School. Not as astonishingly amazing as SBL, but competent and very very helpful for about the same money as Scott's academy.

TheGreek Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Thanks...I bought myself a Soprano sax for Xmas which hasn't been getting the use it deserves - may take a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Just checked - £179 per year is a bit more than I want to pay considering I'm just noodling in the key of C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Browning Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I keep thinking about this. My late dad was a saxophonist and inherited his wonderful 1937 Selmer Balanced Action tenor. It seems such a shame that it isn't being played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My late dad was a saxophonist and inherited his wonderful 1937 Selmer Balanced Action tenor. It seems such a shame that it isn't being played. Funnily enough, bass trainer Scott Devine has posted a seminar in which he frequently cross-references to the sax experience as a guide to bassists wanted to do improv up the top end. Seeing as your horn seems to fetch up to € 5k, I should use it - if its usable. Old instruments doesn't necessarily mean great to play.
