Hey Guys,
I’ve not been able to play sax since Monday I have a nasty lip infection and even with antibiotics looks like it’s not going away anytime soon.
I’d still like to do something to keep my mind active so I thought I may teach myself how to take the sax apart clean it properly then reassemble it and oil the keys (hopefully without making a complete pigs ear of it).
So I’d like to know where to begin! What equipment would I need, would I need to purchase a book on the subject or seek professional advice? If anybody has detailed instructions/pictures of the process or just their own knowledge, or where I can find the info, help would be greatly appreciated!!
Also do you think I shouldget a piece of junk from china to start with? I don't exactly want to ruin my only horn!
