• What is my saxuality?
    21 replies, posted
Hey everyone, I'm going to get a new sax at some point, and I was wondering which type is the best to get to make some good music. I've been using my old Tenor sax which recently broke and I don't want to just move to another Tenor. :sax:
Alto. Love that sound.
I wish i knew how to play sax, sax solos are the best solos *sad face*.
I love deep sax sounds, they sound like melodic farts!
Get a baritone I've heard too many terrible alto saxes in my time to suggest it. that and trumpets

I might just go with the alto then, looks nice, sounds nice.

There was a dude that came to my school to do a concert and played three saxes at the same time. Wish I could remember his name. The tubax player here is humping his instrument: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYp5zmZxXI8[/media] If anyone knows about saxuality, it's him.

[QUOTE=Dopey Trout;24966062]Fucking love baritone saxes[/QUOTE] I thought he was talking about Euphoniums. I play the euphonium. :]
Euphoniums are cool too :3
I've been playing alto on and off for about 10 years, still has a great sound.

baritones are badass [editline]02:53AM[/editline] everyone plays alto don't do eeeet
Baritone saxes are badass, but their applications are more limited. Tenor or alto is the way to go imo.
Baritone all the way <3
Tenor is pretty sweet. Gets those sqwonks in there. Edit: I still can't find the dude that played the three saxes at my school, but this shit is boss: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_0UE7wjFYA[/media]
My brother play baritone. He's got his old alto, I played it a bit but it is tricky. I used to play bass clarinet in band and my music was usually the same as the baritone sax.
Get a soprano! [MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fm7ntyycGbU[/MEDIA] Dat solo!
