As a saxophonist, you know how quickly a mechanism can get bent, an adjustment can be misaligned, or a spring can pop out on your saxophone. And this might happen just before a rehearsal or your next concert! As a beginner, you might feel helpless and think the only solution is to take your beloved instrument to the music store – even though with a bit of practice and routine, you could handle many minor repairs yourself! In this book, instrument maker Robert Klein and saxophonist and successful author Dirko Juchem show you how to carry out these small repairs and adjustments on your own! Additionally, you will learn in detail how your instrument works and is made, and receive professional tips for purchasing and trying out a new or used saxophone.
