locating problems quickly and doing small repairs on your saxophone yourself (Video lesson)
I'm getting questions about this often. If you can locate problems yourself and do some (the most common) basic repairs
on your saxophone yourself, you will avoid a lot of frustration and loss of practice-time over your saxophone career. Not to
mention it might save you a ton of money also

I own Blue Rose Saxophones, designed my own sax and have been building it for over 4 years now. I think I know what I'm talking about . I was never an apprentice though. I taught myself how to play, how to repair and finally how to design. Most real educators see right through the ruse of formal credentials. That is the type of thing mediocre people relied on in the past. Basic saxophone repair is not hard or difficult. It just requires a few special tools and some practice.
Please don't try to make basic saxophone repair sound more difficult then it is. The purpose of this program is to show players that actually a great many problems can be solved
by yourself, with very basic tools. Preventing you from not being able to play or practice when you want or need to Also it helps people play better when they understand the instrument better .

Your Blue Rose website is a bit minimal but I do applaud your decision to implement your design changes on your instruments.I own Blue Rose Saxophones, designed my own sax and have been building it for over 4 years now. I think I know what I'm talking about

I'd enjoy more photos.
Can I ask if this range includes single pillar construction or are they more standard ie mixed ribbed and single post.
Thank you that is exactly what I meant .
Sorry to be so fiery in my response but I'm a big proponent of Extreme Learning ( I wrote the book on that after all ) When people steer the conversation towards a persons official credentials, it usually means they have no real arguments against whatever that person is doing but they just want try to discredit them a bit.
There are a lot of people out there who like to make 'playing the sax' and everything that comes with it, seem much more hard than it is and it is a real shame.
So forgive me for doing the opposite and working hard to take peoples fears away instead and showing them its much easier than they expect and they
can do much more themselves than they believed
