My blood pressure shot up after hearing that some have said you talk to much.clearly people don’t appreciate the value of level of insight that takes at least a decade plus to achieve. I’m going on just past a decade and appreciate and encourage you to please talk. Not only does it increase the resolution of the viewing experience it’s very valuable information. Do your thing Brother. Mark Vandermark Talks a lot not you! Haha
As a coppersmith, among other things, I repair pressed copper/brass/tin artefacts and so I love to hear you chat away. It's great to hear your thought process... what you're doing and why you're doing it. I've emmulated (i.e. stolen) some of your techniques for my work. Thanks Wes - your work is brilliant, your skills are remarkable and your commentary is instructive (as well as entertaining).
I used to play saxophone, and I wish I would have seen these videos back then. You've made me realize how much of a difference adjusting tension can make. I would have attempted my own adjustments on my instrument based on what you show here. I was unsatisfied with some of the action not feeling light enough, and I always thought it was just the inherent nature of the way it was manufactured.
Yeah, since the rise of the internet, I have learned so much on my sax was set up wrong. Before (70’s and 80’s) I just had to put up with problems because I didn’t know any better. I resumed playing (just for fun) several years ago and realized that my sax needed work and had it overhauled. The man found so many fundamental problems that it had since new, and now it plays brilliantly. I wish I had an internet back when I first got it in 1978. Wes, don’t stop talking. It does the world good to learn from you. I don’t repair instruments, I will never have your skill, but you don’t just teach repairmen, you also teach players how to realize they have problems with their horns. Thank you.
"If you don't wanna hear me talk, skip this video" friend I mashed the like button right then and there. I'm not even in the business and your videos are so interesting and informative it feels like I'm sitting in on classroom instruction for free.
You talk all you want, Wes. I appreciate your explanations and expertise. Complainers always have the option to go somewhere else or start their own channel.
Wes Lee don’t worry about what those knuckleheads say. When you’re talking, you continue to talk all you like us people that come to your channel to watch what you’re doing enjoy the mechanics of the things doesn’t mind you speaking at all. Want you to speak all you like like when others will say how you learn is by listening and you can listen to someone if they’re not talking, so brush them off sweep the crumbs up and keep on working man and we’ll see you on the next video
Exactly! This is HIS channel. If he wants to turn on the camera and just talk for an hour, guess what? I'll show up and watch it. Wes Lee is one of my favorite channels, and I absolutely love hearing him talk. He is crazy smart about any subject he brings up, and I've learned a massive amount just listening to his videos. Don't change Wes! We who love you will watch!
Wes, I played clarinet through high school, university marching band, and symphonic band. I am fascinated by this video of how to set up a wind instrument! Had no idea. The player of this instrument will NOT care for it in the manner that it should be. Not being tough on the player, it's just a fact of immaturity. I wish the player could be in the shop and watch, help with this instrument regulation. It's not a great instrument, but in your good hands, I'll bet it now sounds just fine!!!
I'm not a band repair tech, but I've been playing brass instruments for 55+ years. Wes, you offer a master class with every video. You can't do a master class without explanation. If people are bitching about your talking, talk more. Most of the rest of us appreciate it, I'm sure. BTW, I know nothing at all about low clarinets except I love to hear them in association with an ensemble. They provide a richness and color that can't be matched anywhere. Keep on keepin' on, sir.
Talking too much? Really? Talking is the whole point. Sheesh. Thank you for your channel. People watch a UA-cam channel because they like the people on the video. The content is important, but the content with a person you like will win every time.
I ran across your page when I came into possession of a Bugle. i had no idea how balanced the setup on these style of instruments are. . Thank you for the education and entertainment. Talk all you like.
I use YT to learn how to do all sorts of stuff--replace washing machine pumps, install range hood vents, etc...--but I've found that some things are just best left to professionals.... like this! Glad we have your services locally, Wes!
Your explanations of what you are doing are much more helpful than any music backed timelapse video. I'm watching to learn. Thank you so very much for your videos. They are very inspiring.
Dear Wes, your videos are so inspiring not just for professional technicians but also for hobbyists like me. As an early subscriber I'm far from surprised by the success of this channel, which provides an invaluable knowledge base for everyone involved in music instrument repair. Thanks for sharing your passion and for your detailed and informative explanations. I'm Italian and I love your accent, so please try to talk a little bit more, not less!
I had a bad dream of the good dream about a red headed stranger this morning. so I got out of bed to clear my mind and this vid popped up at the 35:00 mark. It is just one of those things, thanks for the videos.
"You take it one key at a time it is not an overwhelming machine." You, my friend, please keep talking. I work on some pretty wild (non-wind) things and that beast on your bench is scary. I love the vids and am fascinated by your working world. I also pick up some tips. Thanks for the great videos.
And to add to my comment that your video was inspirational; new stands made, plug for my leak light and some hours later my bass clarinet is much better for the time invested. A huge thank you for leading the way!
Wes you talk and teach all you want. There are plenty of us that learn from each word you speak. Know that many of us who are not as physically able as we used to be, sure enjoy being in the shop again with you!
Are you kidding......you DO NOT talk to much......i just can not wait To Hear what you have to say‼️‼️and you have a very soothing voice......keep on our master,,,, 😋
Please, keep talking and explaining what you’re doing and why. I am a band director and only had 1 semester of “care and repair” class in college. Thanks.
I love to hear how you walk through the smallest of changes to improve the instrument. I play trombone, but I get a lot out of when you work on woodwinds. They look so complex, yet you break it down to each small part that is the culprit. Very nice.
What a fantastic unique instrument! I've yet to see one of these before, thanks for the video! I really appreciate your narration and knowledge, keep talking away my friend! Also the general key/pad adjustment information will be greatly beneficial in the alignment of my vintage alto sax
Tbh, i think you are an excellent teacher and explain things very well. I dont even play or repair instruments but i like learning the concepts you outline in your videos. Your comment/ sidenote not to watch the video made me chuckle.
Well I don't think you talk too much. I enjoy the video more when you talk through the process. It gives the viewer a good understanding of what you are doing.
12:03 Wes!!! Please tell us if you eventually fix that crooked, remounted, through-hole drill job and straightened up. I don't know enough about these instruments to know whether or not it is "designed" with such low tolerance that it can twist off axis to the rod which it supports. It is like watching the teacher erase a blackboard but she (intentionally) missed a few pieces of numbers or letters just to drive those of us that pay attention CRAZY!!! 😂😅 I know you know what I'm talking about! 😊 I can't even finish the video until I make this comment. So if you do twist it back into alignment I will edit this comment with a thumbs up emoji. 🤣
Great tech teaching Mr. Lee. Oh you sure play very well too, going low register to High takes great playing skills.! Oh yes the keys all in sync. I have had tat issue with B Foot flutes taking way to muh pressure on the roller key to get all three seated YIKES!
the whole point of watching you work is to hear you talk. I wish you would play a little more music with the repaired instrument at the end though. Perhaps compare sound shots and the like.
Excellent presentation and servicing, sir! What irritates me is that an instrument manufacturer would consider this acceptable to send to a school in the first place. If a director is spending precious budget dollars on a needed addition to the ensemble and then has to spend more for your expertise to make it playable is incredible. Shame on the manufacturer for sending out such poor quality. Thanks for your caring and informative video!
31 inches = 78.74 centimeters.....in case one was wondering....🤔 And I don't care about talking....it explains what is going on, and/or what you are doing to correct an issue.👍
Curious what the brand of the instrument is? Seems like the manufacturer did not do much of a QA or even setup on the Clarinet before selling it. i know Wes has no reason to shame the company but potential buyers in a very limited market like this one should be made aware of a manufacturer like this.
Looks like a LeBlanc USA (formerly Vito), based on the mouthpiece receiver angle, lack of trill keys on the top joint, and the pedal Eb vent and pad being on the body and not the bell (which should theoretically can be lipped down to D), and I think I saw the 1 and 3 throat Eb fingering mechanism, which I believe is unique to the Vitos and metal LeBlanc contras.
If you don't talk, how do we know what you are doing, and why? Never played a woodwind instrument, yet I watch you work on them every time you put out a video on them.
Do you think factory set-ups are getting worse than they used to be? These seem like common issues I see on new instruments from almost all manufacturers. Well, minus the holes drilled through the body.
As a brass player, I must say that I am reminded of the difference in complexity between ICE cars and BEVs. I am happy that I have graduated to trumpet and Tesla. So many parts. So many adjustments. tensions. oil pumps. camshafts. corks. Hmm.
I don't get it. People come to a band instrument repair channel but don't want to hear the tech to talk about band instrument repair? I could understand it if all Wes talked about was family, vacation, politics or some other non-repair related chit chat. Ignore the naysayers and press on.
16:38 Ok, again please understand. I have no idea how these art projects that create joyful noise operate. However it seems as though I just saw you still holding down the pad and then declared it to have "no bounce". That doesn't appear to be repaired and you just said to go out of your way to not lie to yourself. Am I missing something? Because it looks to me that your finger from your right hand still holds the key down as you use your left finger to try and prove the equation. 🤔 Actually it happens again at 24:47 . Wes please believe I'm not trying to be overly critical or create a "gotcha". I'm a viewer only. I'm simply trying to understand this process better because you make it enjoyable to learn about these "things" that make the 🎶 music 🎵 that I love dearly. Instruments have always interested me. My parents could not afford my ukulele in 3rd grade so I missed my opportunity at a young age. And after high school I went straight into work-marriage-kids so I never took the time to learn. I saw a documentary in the 80s that claimed that the last instrument that was invented was the tin barrel drum and that no symphony orchestra has added a new instrument in generations. Which baffled me as well. Thanks for these videos and your patience in setting up the shots and editing them for our consumption. -✌🏻
I'm not entirely sure what you're asking about, but I think the point is that "bounce" is a very small motion that you can feel if you tap one of two keys that are supposed to be closing at the same time. If one of them isn't quite closed, but it's very close, you would tap on it and be able to feel that it's not fully closed -- just a few thousands, or a couple thousandths, of an inch, or hundredths of a millimeter. So he felt some bounce, then adjusted the relative motion so that the "early" key closed just a little later. Then the two would close at the same time, and voila -- no bounce. Does that make sense?
As somebody who played contra alto back in high school, I wish I knew all these setup systems! I didn't struggle too much like the opening clip, but I was always looking to play faster and easier.
You don’t talk too much. You are a fantastic presenter. Love to watch you perform your magic on all of these instruments. Keep up the great work!
100% agree. I don't repair instruments, I can barely play the radio, but I enjoy hearing your thought process and detailed descriptions.
Wes, The more you talk The more I learn.
Word for word, exactly what I would have said! I learn alot from your narration!
My blood pressure shot up after hearing that some have said you talk to much.clearly people don’t appreciate the value of level of insight that takes at least a decade plus to achieve. I’m going on just past a decade and appreciate and encourage you to please talk. Not only does it increase the resolution of the viewing experience it’s very valuable information.

As a coppersmith, among other things, I repair pressed copper/brass/tin artefacts and so I love to hear you chat away. It's great to hear your thought process... what you're doing and why you're doing it. I've emmulated (i.e. stolen) some of your techniques for my work.

Thank you for all the explanation! I can't afford to go to a full-time school, so this really helps me learn!
I'm not a band repair tech, but I've been playing brass instruments for 55+ years. Wes, you offer a master class with every video. You can't do a master class without explanation.

So you’re like 70 years old I’m guessing?
You talk just as much as you want/need to. Man alive, people are judgy about FREE content!
You are a teacher, Teach on dude!
Sometimes I wish I had become an instrument repair technician in stead of a computer programmer. These viseos are so inspiring!
Talking too much? Really? Talking is the whole point. Sheesh. Thank you for your channel. People watch a UA-cam channel because they like the people on the video. The content is important, but the content with a person you like will win every time.
I can't believe people said you talk to much. Definitely not true. I really enjoy listening to you explain what the work your doing.
Don’t change a thing Wes, really great videos , always surprises me the number of critics who are happy to “help” the masters , unbelievable
Don’t listen to people who won’t listen. I appreciate your dialogue.
I ran across your page when I came into possession of a Bugle.
i had no idea how balanced the setup on these style of instruments are. .
Thank you for the education and entertainment. Talk all you like.
I use YT to learn how to do all sorts of stuff--replace washing machine pumps, install range hood vents, etc...--but I've found that some things are just best left to professionals.... like this! Glad we have your services locally, Wes!
Not a tech. Love the talking. Hate the commenters telling others what to do or how to show it.
YOU DONT TALK TOO MUCH! DONT LISTEN TO THESE PEOPLE! You videos are awesome.
Talk all you want, my friend-this goes to show how much gets overlooked at the factory-well done!
I watch to hear you explain what is wrong and how it can be fixed. Thank you for your detailed explanations and descriptions. 😊
Please keep talking. For us that are learning, it is just what we need.
Your explanations of what you are doing are much more helpful than any music backed timelapse video. I'm watching to learn. Thank you so very much for your videos. They are very inspiring.
Dear Wes, your videos are so inspiring not just for professional technicians but also for hobbyists like me.

You never talk to much! I love hearing everything you have to say.
Fantastic work, also you don't talk too much you're very concise
Just want to add, like many, you never talk too much, love to hear your thoughts and thank you for sharing!
And to add to my comment that your video was inspirational; new stands made, plug for my leak light and some hours later my bass clarinet is much better for the time invested. A huge thank you for leading the way!
The quality of you commentary is more than excellent. Those who don't care to listen can mute the audio.
Hey this is my contra you’re working on! so cool🎉
I love to hear you talk and explain. Keep talking!
Wes you talk and teach all you want. There are plenty of us that learn from each word you speak. Know that many of us who are not as physically able as we used to be, sure enjoy being in the shop again with you!
Magic, and any word was necessary, you are the Best, man!!!
Are you kidding......you DO NOT talk to much......i just can not wait To Hear what you have to say‼️‼️and you have a very soothing voice......keep on our master,,,, 😋
Please, keep talking and explaining what you’re doing and why. I am a band director and only had 1 semester of “care and repair” class in college. Thanks.
Thank you for your videos. It's always a pleasure to listen to your explanations.!! I'm french but your are very clear.
What a craftsman you are Wes!
I love to hear how you walk through the smallest of changes to improve the instrument. I play trombone, but I get a lot out of when you work on woodwinds. They look so complex, yet you break it down to each small part that is the culprit. Very nice.
I appreciate your comments and explanations. Talk on 😊
What a fantastic unique instrument! I've yet to see one of these before, thanks for the video! I really appreciate your narration and knowledge, keep talking away my friend! Also the general key/pad adjustment information will be greatly beneficial in the alignment of my vintage alto sax
Totally and completely amazing. You're the best thing I've seen in a long time. Thanks! ❤
I love your videos
And you do a great job explaining
What all you are doing
No.....
the talking is not too much
I think it is perfect for clarity
I like the way you explain as you go.
Tbh, i think you are an excellent teacher and explain things very well. I dont even play or repair instruments but i like learning the concepts you outline in your videos. Your comment/ sidenote not to watch the video made me chuckle.
This is a great video on an instrument not often seen. Thanks for taking the time to walk us through it all.
Mate, your videos are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
Thank's Wes, this one was very interesting to watch!
Hi from the UK. The content on your channel is excellent. The explanation of your process is perfect. Thank you Wes you are a legend!!
Nice work, I actually have a contra-alto clarinet, I love the low notes.
And, talk on, it’s important.
Well I don't think you talk too much. I enjoy the video more when you talk through the process. It gives the viewer a good understanding of what you are doing.
12:03
Wes!!! Please tell us if you eventually fix that crooked, remounted, through-hole drill job and straightened up.
I don't know enough about these instruments to know whether or not it is "designed" with such low tolerance that it can twist off axis to the rod which it supports. It is like watching the teacher erase a blackboard but she (intentionally) missed a few pieces of numbers or letters just to drive those of us that pay attention CRAZY!!! 😂😅
I know you know what I'm talking about! 😊
I can't even finish the video until I make this comment. So if you do twist it back into alignment I will edit this comment with a thumbs up emoji. 🤣
You know your Subject and that’s why you talk to explain everything keep doing it. Them other critics can stuff it in their pie hole.
this is such a great video...wish I had this when doing any kind of bass clarinet when I was starting out in repair. So good
Great tech teaching Mr. Lee.
Oh you sure play very well too, going low register to High takes great playing skills.!
Oh yes the keys all in sync. I have had tat issue with B Foot flutes taking way to muh pressure on the roller key to get all three seated YIKES!
I love to be taught!! I love information . You are very good at it!! Thank you sir for sharing 😊 mt
Love the voicing of these.
That was pretty neat. Thanks for sharing.
I love the low clarinets, but they are a nightmare to keep in adjustment.
awesome stuff, what a professional job!!!!
The sound off button is for the talking! You just keeping talking though: I like the explanations!!!!
Thank you! great work. very useful
As always, I love your videos and explanations. How in the world did you discover the screw holes in the bore?
the whole point of watching you work is to hear you talk. I wish you would play a little more music with the repaired instrument at the end though. Perhaps compare sound shots and the like.
Love the shooter rests!
I think that instrument would have confounded Rube Goldberg. Thanks, Wes!
Excellent presentation and servicing, sir! What irritates me is that an instrument manufacturer would consider this acceptable to send to a school in the first place. If a director is spending precious budget dollars on a needed addition to the ensemble and then has to spend more for your expertise to make it playable is incredible. Shame on the manufacturer for sending out such poor quality. Thanks for your caring and informative video!
Someone tell the kid playing this horn to take care. Literally.
31 inches = 78.74 centimeters.....in case one was wondering....🤔 And I don't care about talking....it explains what is going on, and/or what you are doing to correct an issue.👍
Just like downtown!
Never tell the idiots not to watch. Tell them if they don't want to hear your voice they should MUTE while they WATCH. keep that view count up!
-✌🏻
Crazy how a minimum $5,000 instrument can be that messed up brand new. Did Gibson start making clarinets?
Curious what the brand of the instrument is? Seems like the manufacturer did not do much of a QA or even setup on the Clarinet before selling it. i know Wes has no reason to shame the company but potential buyers in a very limited market like this one should be made aware of a manufacturer like this.
Looks like a LeBlanc USA (formerly Vito), based on the mouthpiece receiver angle, lack of trill keys on the top joint, and the pedal Eb vent and pad being on the body and not the bell (which should theoretically can be lipped down to D), and I think I saw the 1 and 3 throat Eb fingering mechanism, which I believe is unique to the Vitos and metal LeBlanc contras.
If you don't talk, how do we know what you are doing, and why? Never played a woodwind instrument, yet I watch you work on them every time you put out a video on them.
Your talking is needed, in imparts information...
VERY COOL!
Это басовый кларнет.У него,как у саксофона отогнутый в сторону исполнителя мундштук и загнутый вверх раструб(Ваш доброжелатель Андрюша Потаповъ).
Do you think factory set-ups are getting worse than they used to be? These seem like common issues I see on new instruments from almost all manufacturers. Well, minus the holes drilled through the body.
As a brass player, I must say that I am reminded of the difference in complexity between ICE cars and BEVs. I am happy that I have graduated to trumpet and Tesla. So many parts. So many adjustments. tensions. oil pumps. camshafts. corks. Hmm.
People that say you talk too much talk too much! :)
Thank-you, Wes! Question: did you make or obtain those extra large V-blocks (foam?)? Those sure look useful!
He mentions towards the beginning of the video that they are gun rests. You can find something similar at a lot of sporting goods stores or gun shops.
@@KershawsGoat Thanks
👍👍👍 💯
👍👏🏻👏🏻
I don't get it. People come to a band instrument repair channel but don't want to hear the tech to talk about band instrument repair?
I could understand it if all Wes talked about was family, vacation, politics or some other non-repair related chit chat.
Ignore the naysayers and press on.
Don't change anything with regards to your talking. I have never thought it was any more than necessary for the task at hand .
16:38
Ok, again please understand. I have no idea how these art projects that create joyful noise operate. However it seems as though I just saw you still holding down the pad and then declared it to have "no bounce". That doesn't appear to be repaired and you just said to go out of your way to not lie to yourself. Am I missing something? Because it looks to me that your finger from your right hand still holds the key down as you use your left finger to try and prove the equation.
🤔
Actually it happens again at 24:47 .
Wes please believe I'm not trying to be overly critical or create a "gotcha". I'm a viewer only. I'm simply trying to understand this process better because you make it enjoyable to learn about these "things" that make the 🎶 music 🎵 that I love dearly. Instruments have always interested me. My parents could not afford my ukulele in 3rd grade so I missed my opportunity at a young age. And after high school I went straight into work-marriage-kids so I never took the time to learn.
I saw a documentary in the 80s that claimed that the last instrument that was invented was the tin barrel drum and that no symphony orchestra has added a new instrument in generations. Which baffled me as well. Thanks for these videos and your patience in setting up the shots and editing them for our consumption.
-✌🏻
I'm not entirely sure what you're asking about, but I think the point is that "bounce" is a very small motion that you can feel if you tap one of two keys that are supposed to be closing at the same time. If one of them isn't quite closed, but it's very close, you would tap on it and be able to feel that it's not fully closed -- just a few thousands, or a couple thousandths, of an inch, or hundredths of a millimeter. So he felt some bounce, then adjusted the relative motion so that the "early" key closed just a little later. Then the two would close at the same time, and voila -- no bounce. Does that make sense?
You do not talk too much
please talk a lot......if people don't want to hear you talk they can turn the volume down....
10:40 I imagine there is a few of those… 🫣
As somebody who played contra alto back in high school, I wish I knew all these setup systems! I didn't struggle too much like the opening clip, but I was always looking to play faster and easier.
