It's really more along the lines of a bass-shaped object, tbh.
If I were to restring my bass, the strings would cost more than I paid for the bass.
It's an old Stella Harmony. ty bass....sounds great tho.

Wake me when you nerds start talking about saxophone reeds.
Vandoren #3 ftw!
Always liked the 3.5, personally.
I usually played a pretty open mouthpiece so I usually went with a 3. I would work down a 4 on occasion with some reed rush tho.
My fave was a Meyer 6, medium chamber but I owned a 9 wide. That er took some wind.
You still have your horn,CF?
I do, but I haven't even touched it in a couple years. And haven't played it seriously in far longer. Got too distracted by other interests.
I miss playing an instrument, though, so maybe I'll pick it back up when I have time again. Or maybe I'll start up instrument number five. Marimba has always seemed fun.
I think marimba would be quite humbling for me.
What do you play besides sax?
Flute, violin, and kinda piano. Kept up with all of them for a long time, but sax is the only one I ever really gave a about. I always wanted to play instruments, but my elementary school didn't let girls play sax until sixth grade, so flute and violin were just me biding my time.I think marimba would be quite humbling for me.

You can't even follow your own almanac list rules.
Um . . . We're talking about guitar strings and saxophone reeds now.
Interesting...those are very technically challenging instruments....I suppose the marimba would fall into that category as well. Shocked you haven't picked up the harp yet.
CF you can always play with my sax
I think that's the reason I picked them, as well as the reason I didn't really give a about them. I enjoyed the technical challenge, but I didn't have a passion for them like I did saxophone.Interesting...those are very technically challenging instruments....I suppose the marimba would fall into that category as well.

That's cool, anything music related wll work.
My thing is mixing. Love to make my own little productions, not unlike a DJ programming his show, his own playlist.

......that is as low down, back in the alley as it can get, the absolute bottom of the barrell. It does not get anymore primitive.
Then there's Jim Thompkins and Freezone....both with just one song, yep, not even both sides of a record, just one song. Nobody having a clue who Freezone was.
Same with this guy. One of the many who were recorded in prison.

Almanac mix tape lists.
Is this sad to watch or what?
Yes, your almanac mix tape lists are indeed sad to watch.
