How does the saxophone feel? I’m thinking about buying one but I want to know how it is in action. Can you help me out?

@timyllym 27 күн бұрын

The key action is a little clunky and ergonomics are not as good as some other models, but you'll get used to it. The sound is great!

How does this horn compare with contemporary professional trumpets?

@timyllym 2 ай бұрын

With most of the vintage trumpets (including this) I find that notes don't slot the same way as in contemporary horns. Current trumpets tend to make a rather precise switch between intervals but with vintage horns you can bend the notes easily and you need to seek the center of the tone. Vintage horns also quite often feel a little tight to play compared to contemporary trumpets.

I'm sorry if I besiege you with my questions, I was offered a Keilwerth Peter Ponzol tenor sax but I don't know it and I would like to know what you think, it's still a sax made in Germany or made in Taiwan, thanks

@pontiactransam75 3 ай бұрын

Hi Timo, I would like to know are there any substantial timbral differences between the Amati Toneking saxes and the Keilwerth New King saxes...the sound of the Amati really surprised me. I have several Selmer Mark VII saxes and a Selmer Series III but the sound of my Amati is really special with a unique letterhead. I thought about replacing the left mechanism by taking it from a Keilwerth donor. Do you think it's possible? Thanks

@pontiactransam75 3 ай бұрын

Hi Timo, I have another question for you, I recently purchased a Keilwerth Nex King tenor sax without high F#, is it possible to add it like the original model? and in your opinion, how do I sound? the keiwerth new king has different timbral characteristics from the Amati toneking

@timyllym 3 ай бұрын

Hi, adding a high F# would be quite tricky job. It probably could be done but would take a lot of time.

@pontiactransam75 3 ай бұрын

Hi Timo, your video is very interesting, I have a question for you, I have just purchased a silver Amati tone king tenor sax which has a key which I thought was the high f# but I haven't yet understood what it is for... another thing the amati have a truly incredible sound the only flaw is the mechanics of the left hand the keys are not very ergonomic and small for my fingers I would like to know if you could modify it with a more modern mechanics thanks

@timyllym 3 ай бұрын

It is not uncommon that some of these have high F# and some not, there have been variation in designs. About the other question, if you mean modifying left hand pinky table (low note keys) to be more ergonomic, that may be difficult.

You inspired me to brush plate wear on the valve block of my silver trumpet, as well to tank plate the valves on my antique conn. They were copper plated and i plated the first valve and then spent quite a bit of time lapping. Used a combination of lapping block and 2000 gr sand paper. Had some trouble as the valve guide is attached to the top of the valve. Almost done

@timyllym 5 ай бұрын

Great to hear! Removing the valve guide will help lapping, it would need to be either soldered off or then filed down. When plating is finished a new valve guide is then created and soldered back on. It will take some extra time though.

Thank you for this vid. It gave me the courage to try on my antique conn. The 1st valve was so leaky I let it go 4 1hr. And was too much. How much lapping did u have to do before it fit? And did you only use that lapping tool?

@timyllym 5 ай бұрын

Thanks! I used the lapping block and lapping compound from Ferree's Tools. Just keep lapping, and every now and then try to fit it into valve casing. When it barely fits the valve casing you can lap it lightly in the valve casing.

Yep that’s it. The way each one blows matters too, volume & airflow pressure makes a huge impact on it. Another point of view it’s, if it’s worse with zero gap, why not chose a larger Backbore ? The big names havee we been talking about the gap only on trumpets …. There aren’t Gap on flugelhorns ?

@timyllym 7 ай бұрын

Well said! I think gap is not such an issue in flugelhorn because it has conical bore and not cylindrical like trumpet.

@@timyllymthere aren’t Gap in Flugel Systems. The mouthpiece enters directly in Leadpipe. So, there aren’t any hall tube in the way…… What makes a Gap it’s the Receiver with Pipe matching, originating a space between the two.

The valve ports probably did get a little smaller in diameter. Ideally the ports should be covered with wax, white-out etc before plating.

Cool video. I enjoyed the backstory and history. I just bought a Selmer USA as my first bari and I agree that it has a fat sound. It was previously a school horn so mine needed a lot of work in the regulation. Also just got an Otto Link Super Tone Master 7 and i'm excited to try it once the horn is out of the shop.

Hi Timo, this Video is very interesting. It's a good ideal, to make the plating at home ! It's funny, that you plate a nickel valve . I'm playin my Getzen Severinsen Trumpet since 1979. But the nickel plated valves work very well..I think, these nickel valves are definitely the best kind of valves. Your plating method will be much more interesting for users of monel and Steel valves and Ithink, the method is the same..copper and the nickel, correct? Best wishes from germany, peter

@timyllym 9 ай бұрын

Thanks Peter! Yes, method is the same for monel and steel. Copper sticks easily so it goes first and then final layer with nickel.

Hello, you can buy pads from several places e.g. musiccenter.it, ferreestools.com or musicmedic.com, but if you have no prior experience in repairing saxophone it is best to leave it to a professional repair technician. Changing pads looks easy but it is fairly difficult to get them seal well without any leaks.

Thanks! For this video I just inspected the casing with light to see there are no dents, but you can't make sure it's perfectly round by just inspection.

Does a professional trumpet hurt the development of a beginner trumpet student?

If the bore size of the professional instrument is something regular and not extremely small or extremely large, so the trumpet is easy to play, then I'd say that it can't hurt, it will only assist.
