Will do Jay! I want to thank you and the guys at Sweetwater for setting up a fantastic horn! I am planning on buying the BetterSax Bari when it comes out too!
Good afternoon my main problem with these newer brands of saxophones is they have no adjustment screws on the right and left hand stacks. Having a mechanical background and coming from Yamahas l know their value.
I completely agree! That's what I love about my Yamaha YBS-52 Bari. On the BetterSax, there's adjustment screws almost everywhere else, but not on the right and left stacks
Good afternoon one of the good properties of grease is that it is a very good sealant. It does not allow air to pass through it. So for not only the neck cork but also the neck tenon grease is good.
Hey, thanks for purchasing the BetterSax Classic and making this video. Fantastic job, and really glad you like the horn. Keep me posted.

Watching a unboxing video is like celebrating christmas by myself...🙏🎷📦
He did it!!! Funny Jay Metcalf lick on better saxophone!!!! Also Andante et Scherzo intro at 9:20 😰
You would be correct sir 😏
Looks solid...
that sax truly is a bettersax
Surprised to see the impact damage to the white box - that thing took a hit or two.
That's FedEx 😂😂
@@BrassKnot No. that inner box that actually contained the saxophone in its case had punctures. So much for dialing in the set up beforehand.
4:07 William Logan BrassKnot debut confirmed??
😱😱😱

Is it a classical mouthpiece i.e. aimed at playing classical music or a classic mouthpiece?
Probably both. I basically just needed a good hard rubber mouthpiece and the BetterSax one fit my needs perfectly!
Will it play Coltrane by itself 🤔🎶🎵🎷
Sadly not 😂😂
Don't replace the A in sax with an E 😲😲😲😲😲
😂😂
My only complaint about this sax is the color. My B.S. alto plays fantastic, I just don’t like the color.
The color definitely isn't for everyone
Ah, the Bozza…lol
Yeah, I wish I could've uploaded the whole thing 💀
No gloves?
Sadly not 😂
Don't cork grease your neck tenon. Please
Why's that?
I'm totally going to cork grease my tenon because of this comment
how do you counter stiffness in the fit then?
@@newscrews11 Exactly!
