Tech/maintenance Arbiter pro sound alto parts required

[saxmad]

I'm new to this forum and hope there is a member in the group who has various Arbiter pro sound keys or a damaged donor sax laying around.

I need the following:

low C# key
side C key
side Bb key
RH D key
LH B key
high E key

I guess members respond through the forum. Alternatively call me on 07733 308363. Many thanks in anticipation.

Hi SaxMad

You prob already know this, but I think you would be better off passing your sax on as a donor. and then just pick-up another Arbiter or like from here or ebay. I have seen Horns like this going for very small amounts of cash.

Hi there, and welcome

Windcraft sell spares, and they could probably sort you out. But that's quite a list of missing bits. Even if you do the work yourself, it's a bit marginal whethere it could ever be an economic repair. I guess you also need springs, pads and felt as well. It's quite a lot of work for a fairly modest sax. To put it into perspective, I recently bought a very playable Vito/Yamaha YAS21 for £120. I'd be surprised if you could fix up the Arbiter for that.
