Sax player here from the Houston, TX area!
Been playing for 20 years. Alto (main), soprano, and bari. I'm not too into the sound of the tenor. Don't quite know why... just never really got into it (except for Gerald Albright and Everette Harp).
Current set up: Selmer Super Action II alto, Otto Link 6 metal mouthpiece. Belmonte soprano, plastic mouthpiece that came with it
. It sounds good, so I just use it. I also have Dukoff mouthpieces for alto and soprano, but it's too bright and abrasive for the sound I'm trying to get now. Rico Select Jazz 3M reeds for both horns.
BTW, if you want to WAKE UP your threads, somebody needs to start a fight or something. That's why the drum room is always buzzing... we fight and argue like a family!!
Basically, somebody up in hea is gon hav to git ig-nant!!
I'm just joking!!
