Good evening Mr, when I 1st saw your video I got a bit upset bcuz I thought that you was one them guy's who try to act professional, but when I continued watching your video I enjoyed it alot, I've been playing saxophone for more than 25yrs but still learning and you said some good point's, I have a yamaha yas-23 I thank you for your humor and clear instructions, after I had finished putting it back together I realized that it wasn't hard to put together thanks, God bless you
Good video there. I recommend when the sax is being taken apart check each hinge rod for straightness by pushing it through the rod to make sure it fits properly. This is especially helpful on keys such as the low C/Eb that is commonly bent. Get that done before reassembling it so you have that out of the way. Also, the Vito that you have may be a Yamaha 23 but several Vito models are made in different locations and are not similar to Yamaha at all.
Thk u I just got my first vintage alto & I am making it my own. If anything brakes I will know. I may sell it bc it looked small when i went to pick up. Ill be able to buy a vintage tenor. Not into shiny stuff. I like to play with ugly pennies that work new
good evening sir is it possible to do this pad changing on the horn in sections ,completly changing pads and springs one section at a time, without taking the whole saxophone apart and not being able to get it back together
Hi Sir, when you mention the Allied no.6 driver, or the Allied no.4 driver on the Flute/Clarinet clips, are you meaning the T5104 and T5106 drivers? Thank you for your advice, these clips have been extremely helpful
Well I compare the sax to the automatic transmission. Each who came up with what the sax person must have gone nuts like the auto trans inventors. I mean why would someone develop a transposing instrument? Well I have an old USA made Bundy and not a Bundy II. It needed pads something fierce. Taking mine apart I just started with the left hand keys and went to it. Going back together is a better headache, knowing what needs to be there before putting what goes there. I use a little old precision screw driver, small needle nose and a short forceps.
Who ever created a saxophone must of been a nut or genius, Thanks this video helped me save a saxophones life.
hellish construction is the price for intuitive ergonomics
