| •Trying to find out more info on this interesting horn. I found some info on saxpics and a very accurate picture similar to the horn I have. Per some digging I believe the horn is patented. The bell has an engraving on it. - no serial numbers have been found. Web site also dated this horn to be around 1915. If anyone has any info regarding this horn I would really appreciate your comments and input.
Thanks

| •So lately...I've been getting this pain in my jaw...I don't know how to explain where exactly but it seems where it connects with the rest of my head I guess near my ear. And it's got worse and worse, and after a concert today it's getting pretty bad and I'm not sure why. The only thing I can think of is that I moved up to size 3 reeds because I liked the way they played a little bit more on my RPC 90R (.090 on alto). Was on 2m ricos, moved to 3s and now lately I noticed the pain while I'm on size 3 Javas (all I have, reeds are expensive!!). So I'm not totally sure if it's the reed or not as I believe I was fine on Rico 3S
Anyone have suggestions or ideas on what to do? I'm suppose to go to the dentist Wednesday for the usual check-up I guess, should I ask them to take a look at it?
Any help would be appreciated! by CountSpatula on 5/12/2008 9:58:00 PM

| •Recently I got a very nice King Zephyr from saxquest and its a great horn, but just not the one for me. I guess I need to sell it, but then comes the problem of what to try and get next. I really want a vintage horn, but with the cost I'm not sure if vits gonna be worth it. Any advice would be great.

| •Right now, I'm playing bari in a local ska band. Basically, I'd like a wireless clip-on mic. It doesn't have to be the best, but something that'll sound decent, that would screw up on me, and that will pick up all my notes.
I was looking at the Samson Concert 77 wireless horn mic. Anyone have experience with this, or have an alternative? I'd like the price to be the same or less than the Concert 77. Thanks! by Fatboywoods on 5/10/2008 9:41:00 PM
