I've seeing some TenorSax MP - copy of 'Briton' or 'Bryton' or similar make. It had a white/yellowish colour, the buffle looked as two Niagaras shaped as a...
One more idea for your checklist: You may want to check to if some tone hole covers open much wider now than they used to do 40 years ago? What if replaced...
I doubt that saliva has much effect on the sounding of the mpc. I was an oboe player for many years, and the reed stape is so small that even a small coating...
... now ... That's a good question. Most of the info I've seen is that the original pads on Martin horns were quite thin...so you would think that a thicker...

Hi, Keith. I've been lurking for a while and thought I would offer some help. I will plate any mouthpiece for the group in silver or nickel or $10 plus...
