Sir, wala po ba kasamang Mouthpiece yung sax mo from mang pany?   ANyway,  Different Reeds for Different folks... Ive used RICO and Vandoren.  Ricos are Cost Effective, Vandorens naman ok rin, current STANDARD for students.

But now, i Use VANDOREN JAVA JAZZ reeds.  A bit softer then Standard Vandorens, pero gusto ko yung tunog. Fibracell naman are VERY EXPENSIVE, saka dapat ingatan.. kasi nasisira parin sha kahit SYNTHETIC ito.

OThers brands include LAVOZ, RICO PLASTICOVER.  Personally, i would recommend you get RICOS muna, since youre starting pa naman. Im sure one way or another, may masisira kang reeds in a week or two (parang ako noong nag sstart).. pero youll get the hang of it after. Pag gumanda na embouchure mo, Upgrade to 2 1/2 Vandorens or Other brands.

Opo sir, tama. heheh okay naman po yung tunog. Yung look pwede narin. heheh importante naman yung tone nya. Nageenjoy naman ko.

By the way, nakakaapekto ba ng tone kapag may parang lubog sa ilalim ng sax? Di naman ganun kalaki yung lubog. Tingin ko bangga yun ng kung ano nung unang may-ari. hehehe

Thanks

whheew.. buti lang. hehehe thank you bro.

Anyway, baka may kilala ka nagtuturo ng sax near fairview. Thank you.

Question:

Pag naka octave ako, okay yung tunong parang kulob. Pero pag normal note/key (di naka press yung octave key), parang barko. hehehe
Pano po mareresolve? thanks. :-D
