  • Impressive sax and you seem to have it well under control :)

  • Plays much cleaner than I thought it would. Nice.

  • What a beautiful sax! You play this monster very well too! I'll bet the STAND for this instrument almost cost as much money as my 1st Selmer Mk VI tenor did in back in 1966.

    Thank you for posting this.

    For the rest of you guys interested in REALLY BIG instruments, go to your search engine and check out the "Contra-Bass Compendium." The site has some really amazingly LARGE woodwind & brass instruments...

    Blow low!

  • Oh that is classy. Makes you fart, but it's classy. I very much like, keep it up!

  • epic

  • good job, i like ur other vids too. keep up the good work !

  • awesome dude!

    

  • is this played in Eb?

  • @TheLaxplayer58

    The horn is in Eb.  The song is in concert Bb.

  • @saxtek I thought all Sub- contra-basses were b flat

  • @TheLaxplayer58 lol i was like what the heck is eb the after i realized you meant Eflat smh

  • WOOOOOOOWWWWW COOOOOLL!!!!!

  • What impresses me about this instrument is that even though it's sound is low and deep the notes sound sharp and clean and of course your good playing helps.

  • Wow! This is AWESOME! And thats comming from a bari sax player!

  • sounds like lou rawls to me

  • thats was the best jass ever. the sax was huge

  • lol who just has that! Thats awsome!

  • Never seen a AWESOME Sax, like that in my life! What a BIG horn!:) LOL!

  • can you go altissimo on this sax? it must have such a huge range if you can!

  • @tristanb20 Yes, this saxophone has a special key for altissimo, and it works very well.

  • That is freaking awesome. Makes my soprano look like a pet and my alto look like a baby. LOL I love it :)

  • Comment removed

  • need big lungs to play it... and big balls to lift it

  • Try marching with that!

  • sorry if this was already asked, but how much does the sax weigh?

  • xDDD

  • And I thought my Bari Sax was big

  • WHO is playing?!?!

  • @OttoLink10 Randy Emerick

  • exageradamente grande, no sabia que existia!

  • holy shit i hope for you have a good neighbourhood ,because it looks like this amzing saxophone can be a littlle bit noisy :)

  • Owwww! Very nice, sir. I thought only alice in wonderland played those type of saxes! I just read you played in Word of Mouth with Jaco. Glad I found your channel :D What was it like playing with Mr Pastorius?

    Thanks,

    Matt from London

  • Awesome, man you might have giant lungs for playing that. Good work! Love the song too.

  • I will love to have one of thouse one day!

  • this just sounds freaking awesome!!!

  • u just turned one metalhead into blues :P

  • I'm a brass freak, but this just makes me want to go get a sax.

  • Usually in very large saxophones the songs sound awful in this case is not so Good:)

  • Very nice! I had an opportunity to play Paul Cohen's contrabass in 1992. To me, wind was not a problem. The problem is the response when playing the low notes. You don't seem to have any problem in this area.

    Slow passages are much easier for an instrument that low. I am impressed by your technique.

  • when you play where does the sax rests and how can you hold it in place?

  • @davidgon98 This saxophone comes with a giant stand that holds the horn for you.

  • @saxtek where do they make them? and where do they sell them?

  • @saxtek

    At first, I read your comment as, "this saxophone comes with a giant island"...but what bothers me is that I thought that was pretty reasonable before taking a second look.

  • Wow, I love the sound. But, jeje, my soprano fits in my backpack. Great; really BIG JAZZ.

  • You rock the house Randy

  • Love it!!

  • eff that I am sooo trading in my tuba for one of these

  • Wow love that thing growling.

  • I'm just waiting for him to scream "MURDER ME".

  • sorry if this question's already been asked, there is just too many to read through, but what song is this? i remember if from my youth.

  • Looks like you was going to pass out after that jam session. You sounded GREAT!

  • This looks like a Selmer ??

  • YOU ARE AWESOME! LOVE YOUR JAZZY SOUND.

    NOT LIKE THAT TRASHY SOUND FROM OTHER CONTRABASS SAX PLAYERS.

  • where do you get the reads from? and the mouthpeice? it must have cost a fortune!!

  • I can see this being used for DUBSTEP

  • @vidzane hells yea

  • i swear, if people dont stop mentioning jb on sax vids...

  • I'm mad my band teacher never got me one. so what it's 10,000 dollars. who cares that i'm the only one who's got the balls to play it. stupid 15 freakin xylos

  • Where do you get reeds for it?

  • @pumazpawz

    It uses bass sax reeds.

  • thats awsome ur good!

  • This almost as good as watching Justin Bieber dying in CSI.

  • He has a great sound on the contra! Wow

  • needs more bass

  • It must take alot of air. Just look at his face.

    I have trouble playing a low C on my Alto cuz of the lack of air I put in.

  • MORE!~MORE!~MORE!~MORE!~

  • perfect,wanderful

  • Wow, that tiny man has a tiny couch - and a normal sized sax.

  • gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ood but to long

  • @merridi1 Nah, it's too short. I get tired of pressing the replay button.

  • Not enough sax

  • I was expecting a poor sound and playing but you sound amazing on it. Thanks for posting.

  • Buenisimo un exelente saxofon y saxofonista....

  • I wonder if this baby has a low A key.

  • @PianoHero1994

    Yes it does. It's the first contrabass sax ever made with a low A.

  • @PianoHero1994 Why is a low A key important on the sax? Is it just for blues in A?

  • @w0rdisbond On an instrument in the key of E flat (like baritone sax and contrabass sax), the low A key is a concert C - A pretty useful note.

  • sounds great!

  • i love this !!

  • Randy,

    Simply awesome. Never seen anything like it.

    eddie

  • do you have something bigger?

  • You sound great, i have seen lots of videos where people just sound like crap and "think" they can play it. Bravo

  • WOW - I never heard or saw a bass sax before - and you really swing.........some of these notes are probably a "natural laxative" ;-)

  • WOW - I never heard or saw a bass sax before - and you really swing.........some of these notes are probably a "natural laxative" ;-)

  • now whats the difference between this and a bass saxophone? besides the size hahaha why would someone choose this over the other?

  • @4stringFanatico I assume you mean baritone and you would choose this because it is tuned an octave below baritone for a even more deep and full sound.

  • I bet it shakes his whole house and he has to pick up his broken dishes off the floor

  • where do you get such a butiful instrument

  • You only bought this sax because it's the perfect height to sit on your sofa and play.

  • @KingJoeyJunior he isn't sitting on the sofa.

  • He's like an old James Hetfield playing for their grandchildrens when they are tired of metal and want to sleep

  • did you leave the radio on honey? No, its the neighbor playing that 12 foot saxophone again!

  • Love it. You play so bluesie.

  • That has got to be the single coolest sounding air driven instrument that I have ever heard.

  • where the heck do u buy those

    they so coooooooooooooool!!!

  • Reasons like this is what makes the Sax the sexiest instrument ever! What else will give you those sultry tones! Don't know if my alto adapted pipes could ever play the contra!
