It’s like a manual car, but it’s a manual saxophone! That’s crazy that you have to adapt to learn how to use 2 octave keys because one of them isn’t automatic anymore.

@@Klara_S. when I was a beginner I thought the same. Now I am incredibly thankful that I have 3 separate octave keys. It makes the high register so much easier and in tune, and I have plenty of contemporary music possibilities with stuff like harmonics.

If you count the whisper key, half holing, and all the vent/flick keys, the bassoon has about 5 octave keys.

Adolphe Sax: I have an idea for a novel instrument. My concept is that the sound will be consistently amazing, but absolutely no two builders will agree how it should be made. I'm taking all suggestions, of course.

I play both Bari and bass for college and I love it. One of the horns I used to play was a bass clarinet from 1928 and it had no low Eb key. Sounded wicked.

Ab….I believe you mean G#……. Disclaimer: I know they’re the same but it just hurts a lil bit as a saxophonist 😅

BARI SAX GANG 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Speaking about the " no pearls " - I also have a 1917 Harwood / Buescher Alto that has the same feature . . . .

I have a 1917 GH White king model ( before King was a brand , curved soprano it’s Mede of silver and has no gooseneck but has a one key octave system amazing the innovation in 12 years

Love that 🎷

awesome horn dude!

Very cool, I like seeing different setups

I really like the unique features of your octaves ;) I have my OLD York Bari in the shop , getting an overhaul . . . . ;) Silver W/ Gold bell ;-))

He did not just call it Ab that hurts as a saxophonist. Ik they’re the same but after playing alto for 6 years it ms just not the same.

yes i agree. the way I personally like to look at it is what the button does to the note. When you press the key in question while playing an A, it does nothing at all. When you press it while playing G, it makes it go up by a half step, therefore making it a G# key. Same idea applies to the notes that the other commenter, kevin listed.

UHHHHHH Please tell me yoh have a video of you playing it? That's so cool to have, I'm glad the youtube gods blessed me with it. I live in Orlando and used to go to Disney a lot to listen to the band at the Grand Floridian while they still played. They had a GORGEOUS (my best guess is 1930s) era bass sax.

​@@TheMusicMan49 As an oboist, I can say that the manual octaves aren't really a big deal for the Ferlings. Once you've been using that system for a long enough time, it honestly just becomes second nature to you (Oboes have manual double octaves, plus use a half hole for middle C#/D/Eb [effectively giving us manual triple octaves], so... yeah, Saxophones have it easy for Ferling studies)

I have a baritone sax just like this.

I have a same like Baritone 😊

out of most baris i have seen not having pearls is interesting

A hate the octave key system because it doesnt give the neck any turning room or it will not be correct

There's still two octave vents (one on the body and one on the neck). They just didn't originally have the complicated system that automatically switched between the two of hence two octave keys originally.
