why do c stars have rectangular bores?

[carlheanerd]

@aaronvespro It's easier to make in bulk, plus Selmer tends to favor shaped chambers.

This guy was unbelievable! Did he ever put the sax down?

When did he die? I'm going to Yahoo him, now.

I have his "Top Tones for Saxaphone," or whatever it's called, but I guess I never gave it enough of a chance - I really don't have the altissimo thing tight, at all. I can only hit and play a couple of tones above the high G on my tenor (I have the high F# key on my Selmer).

can someone tell me why the neck on his saxophone look soo long??!??

[IOLTA]

@blueraspberry100 - Because the shank of his mouthpiece is short.

[blueraspberry100]

@IOLTA o, that makes sense..
