A couple of days ago I published an article on my site that is the brainchild of a wonderful guest author. Raymond F. Kretz has a fantastic personal collection of C melody saxophones, and a unbounding curiosity of the intricacies and variations seen in vintage saxophones, as well as the...

Hi all, I recently just bought a Vintage Buescher True Tone Alto, and with it came a MC Gregory Gale Custom 4C mouthpiece. Any knowledge about it? How much it may be worth? I haven’t played on it yet. I’ve been doing a fair amount of research on it and ground pretty minimal information. Some...

Hi. I’m re-learning the sax after a break of nearly 30 years. I’m playing a lovely Buescher True Tone and have been struggling to find the right mouthpiece for me. I recently ordered a V5 jazz a45 mouthpiece as I’d tried one in a shop and really liked it pre-Covid. My issue is I think I must...

Hi everyone! I've recently purchased an old Buescher True Tone Alto sax off eBay. For an old sax that I got for a low price, it plays great (the action is a bit slow but I think I'll be able to fix that by cleaning and roiling the rods). However, I have an extremely hard time getting out a low...

Hi! I have looked at some threads about cleaning mouthpieces but I have found none that talked about a C-melody Buescher True Tone. I have a realy disgusting mouthpiece (just bought the C-melody) that I would like to clean and I don't know if it is made of hard rubber or ebonite, does anybody...

Hi, I have recently bought on ebay a Buescher TT C melody serial 130XXX. I was aware that it would need an overhaul and a full repad. Since I don't really have the money for it right now, I figured I could just leave it on a stand, since I kind of find it beautiful. I received it this morning...
