Thanks for the feature bro! Great hangin with you last weekend!

[@colerydalch]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@NoahKawaguchi]

Great video! As a fellow sax flyer I'm wondering what you mean by small enough to hide. At what point during the process of flying might one be able to hide a horn? Like when you walk up to the gate and scan your boarding pass? Or later?

[@SaxSpy]

at the gate behind your back when they try to gatecheck

[@NoahKawaguchi]

oh okay thanks

[@jonathanmarks4835]

The gentle yet firm Dave-Pollack roasting was an exquisite note to end on 😂

[@SaxSpy]

If I can't best him on the bandstand, I gotta play a little dirty

[@joewalsh4191]

The quality of your videos is insane! Loved how this one showed such an impressive player's simple but effective setup.

[@SaxSpy]

thank you! I hope to feature more setup soon

[@saxjamin]

Practice spots.. 🤔.. you might be right.! I mean, I wouldn’t know , because I don’t practice! 🤣🤣. But.. it HAS happened when I play long gigs!

[@alexambroise111]

Chase Baird's horn!!!

[@SaxSpy]

i do need to do this...

[@dj9299]

Would love to see one of these for either Wenzl McGowan or Micheal Wilbur from Moon Hooch

[@SaxSpy]

ooh yes! Perhaps they'll tour around here 🤓

[@breckerfan]

Excellent job! Keep the good work! Love your videos!

[@SaxSpy]

thank you!

What's minty mean?, I think I know but it's over-used. I'm an english language investor.

[@SaxSpy]

like a modern horn bought mint

[@saxman7131]

I ask for my horn to be placed in the closet as I board the plane.

[@SaxSpy]

do they usually do it? i save that as a backup if i cant get space above...

[@davemazur2062]

Bro awesome video. Great footage.

[@MrGuto]

Wow, this is the nerdiest setup video ever, in a good way! Nicely done. Not sure I learned anything from it, especially with both of you endorsing BSS, but it was cool to watch nevertheless.

[@SaxSpy]

Thanks! I'm not a BSS artist/exclusive, I have affiliate codes for various companies more in the reviewer side of things (tech youtube tends to do it well). I hope to show off other cool setups in the future!

[@rhrh2025]

Weird case! I've never seen a case that had the Bb, B, C, etc. face down!

[@SaxSpy]

I'm not sure what you mean, can you explain more?

[@MusicMediccom]

Great video!

[@obadee2000]

Well done Bro. Great reviews. Please what us your own current set up (Mouthpiece and reed, I know you play a Mark VI sax)

[@Trevayne4]

Vinty Selmer Soloist? Hmmmm this is the first time I’ve heard that….

[@jambajoby32]

Do tenors in general need regular set up maintenance? Or is this specific to vintage (mk6) horns ?

[@SaxSpy]

I recommend a yearly coa for all horns. For new tenors, I'd have someone at least look it over. Recently, I saw a ne selmer supreme with dented toneholes from the factory and another with holes in the brass

[@Xavia_Dimoff]

@@SaxSpyWhat happened with those horns? Did Selmer refund them, or…?

[@SaxSpy]

@@Xavia_Dimoff nope, the repairman fixed it up face palming and the client was actually able to play it

[@Xavia_Dimoff]

@@SaxSpy Do you know if they told Selmer or just went ahead with the repairs?

[@SaxSpy]

@@Xavia_Dimoff im sure the shop didn't, unsure if client did

[@joelpowzyk5295]

Great set up lesson. Joel

[@SaxSpy]

thanks!

[@michaeldean9338]

Really enjoying the channel. I'm just curious, do have any info on the late, Steve Grossman's setup? He's one of my favorites. Love the channel. You have a decent tone on flute, btw. Peace

[@SaxSpy]

Ryan owns it! I'll have to ask him

[@michaeldean9338]

@@SaxSpy Sweet. Thanks, man.

[@jakechastain8477]

Why don't you do one of the Masters, like Rollins, Bob Berg, Brecker, Dolphy, Mintzer, someone that we all actually care about!

[@SaxSpy]

Ive done michael brecker, chris potter, and a few others on my instagram

[@dylankubilus1422]

Bro what? Have you heard Ryan play?

[@nehemiahstewart]

I agree. I appreciate the quality of this content👌🏾👌🏾

[@SaxSpy]

thank you! I hope to improve upon it

This is not necessary
