Hi Scott I play on the same sax 66Rx Influence tenor went for the DK finish same as my Alto, plus Soprano, P Mauriat really are amazing instruments, your the one who got me on this brand watching your Havana cover on your alto about 5 years ago, thanks for sharing your knowledge really motivated me to another level, have a great summer

[@ScottPaddock]

Want to trade for my unlacquered??? 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Yeah, I love these P. Mauriats. They have such a fat sound and are super easy to play. Thanks for being a continued supporter of my channel!

[@saxocoustic]

@@ScottPaddock 😂😂😂 fantastic channel Scott thanks for all your hard work over the years big fan 🇬🇧🎷

[@3rd_Son]

I love ur videos. I really need a tenor sax. Been playing alto for 2years

[@ScottPaddock]

Thanks!

[@coreychandler2016]

I love my SYOS Scott Paddock mouthpiece. It is easy blowing. Still working on finding the right reed for it.

[@ScottPaddock]

Hey Corey! Glad to hear that you are loving the mp. I use a Legere Signature cut on mine.

[@markhadfield6408]

Hi Scott, thanks for the info. We'd really like it if you could do some more You Tube tenor sax lessons. Please! Thanking you. Cheers ☺

[@ScottPaddock]

Hey Mark! I plan on doing a lot more on tenor.

[@markhadfield6408]

@@ScottPaddock Yo Scott! Wow. Bless your heart, brass tonsils and cotton sox ya! Fantastic news, and, you certainly have a wide ranging and a very fortunate audience awaiting indeed. Thanking you most kindly . Can't wait! Whoop Whoop!! Yeeha! Cheers! "Every man is the fashioner of his own fortune." Shine on. Again, thanking you.

Thanx Scott...love your work...

[@johncarey8485]

It is interesting that you use a very soft reed for alto (2.25) and a relatively hard reed on tenor (3.5). That seems backwards from what a lot of people do. (On alto I use the Barkley pop and the 2.25 like you have and I love it. I also started your sax school especially for the funk and I love it so far. Thanks!)

[@ScottPaddock]

I think it has a lot to do with the differences in the mouthpieces. The BB has a much higher baffle. Glad you are enjoying the Sax School! The Funk Course is a lot of fun!!

[@adventureswithtrey1658]

No mention of neck strap, is it just the one that came with your horn?

[@barbarabattiste4876]

Thanks for the info Scott. Been wondering about your crazy orange mouthpiece. Haha. Very cool. I need a wireless mic for my alto so I'll check out the shure. I like that you said it doesn't pick up background noise. It's just what I've been looking for. Your videos are all great. Thanks

[@ScottPaddock]

Thanks Barbara! Yeah, it makes it a lot easier when playing with a band when there are several other instruments bleeding into the mic or when recording at home on a noisy street.

[@HayKay_]

Yes, please do a video on endorsement.

Hey Scott I really like the harness you use for your tenor. I've been looking for the brand / model in this and in your pack for tour videos but you didn't mention. If you don't mind saying which model do you use?

[@ScottPaddock]

Hey! I made the harness myself out of a couple different straps. So, it's not something you can buy in a music store.

[@chistofanor]

@@ScottPaddock thanks! I wasn't expecting that but it's interesting to hear.

[@bobblues1158]

Do you have issues with keeping the Mauriat in adjustment? Have you had to have any swedging done on it? I have a Mauriat and love the sound but had the pivot screws changed over to the Selmer and Yamaha type.

[@ScottPaddock]

Hey! Not really; my tenor goes in the shop about once every 1.5 years. I don't really have much trouble with it at all. My alto goes in once every 4-5 months because I play it A LOT and am pretty hard on it, but I don't think my repairman has done much of that type of adjustment.

[@bobblues1158]

@@ScottPaddock Thank you Scott!

[@blueeyedsoulman]

How are you feeling about the Roland AE-10G these days?

[@ScottPaddock]

I like it, I just wished I practiced it more. I'll get it out every day for a week or two and then it will sit there feeling lonely for a month or longer. If I were to buy one today, I'd probably go for the upgraded one.

[@GardensoftheAncientsHerbal]

I found using Bari sax reeds with a very wide mouthpiece in 3 hardness with an optimum ligature just screams. The horn is irrelevant as long as it is professional although I prefer yani /selmer, cannonball is good too, never tried the P Mauriat. Honestly the ligature mouthpiece and reed are the most important thing to pay attention too and spend money on than a fancy horn in my opinion.

[@lubatico]

Also, the set up in the description is the alto one, not tenor ;-)

[@ScottPaddock]

Fixed! Sorry, it was auto-filled out.

[@lubatico]

@@ScottPaddock awesome! Thanks for taking the time to respond. Love your videos!

[@lubatico]

Thanks, Scott. The Syos code doesn't seem to work. Also, can you please repeat the name of the mouthpiece? thanks
