If I'm not mistaken, the tenon is the metal tube soldered to the neck and the tenon receiver is the part you pointed to where the tenon fits into. Nice video and thanks for sending out the email updates. They are very informative.

Hi, I would like to know if that job can be done with any sandblasting gun? and the type of sand?
@MusicMediccom
5 жыл бұрын
There are two types of sand used for this process, one for cutting and one for smoothing. The gun is used at the lowest pressure to prevent warping or denting the brass.

how much do you charge for this work?
@vicvital6677 Жыл бұрын
I have a tenor sax. I saw my video on KZread of you sand blasting a tenor. How much would cost to just sand blast the body? Is it possible to do with the springs on? Thanks in advance.

You'll need to remove the springs to sand blast the body. Please email us at: saxproshop@musicmedic.com and we can get you a price for this work.

Did you have to manually apply the gold with a plating kit? (I’m presuming you couldn’t dip it as that would affect the outside)

Maybe they plug the bell with something, and fit a cup around the rim of the bell. Then fill that section of the bell with plating solution.

"B-I-S-H-E-R"... The oldest ads have it pronounced BISHER... and “Bisher" is what all the old timers from Elkhart Indiana still say; dead set against any other pronunciation. Saxquest actually went to several club meetings of retired instrument factory workers in Elkhart, where the BISHER pronunciation still lives on! A former Selmer USA master mouthpiece craftsman who worked with Ralph Morgan also said it was BISHER, and has never been anything but Bisher; he knew because Ralph had been engaged to Gus Buescher's daughter!”

That's correct. Also, few people know that Selmer is actually pronounced 'Selm-yaaaaay'. Even less people know that Bundy is actually pronounced 'Boon-tuh' (with the accent on the 'Boon'). And I've only ever known one person who is honest enough to admit that Conn is pronounced 'Cone', and is named after the geometric shape of the horn. He plays a Cone 11M, with a 12.5 neck.

Wouldn't it be Bew-sher? As for the guy whose name it was, he was American, and had probably come from a family that bastardised its own pronunciation after immigration etc.

That's almost correct. You must pronounce it auf Deutsch, which means that it's 'B-euhh-scherr'. Most people just say Bisher, if they don't speak German (but it's a little cringe, for those that truly know how to pronounce it).
