People are understandably wondering (and/or doubting) how £7000 is justified. Some of that may be down to the marketing. I think that's quite normal for this kind of price instrument (unless it's a Selmer of course 🙂 ). Partly healthy (?) scepticism and partly some bashing, especially people who believe the marketing to look a bout hypish.I'm sure something similar might happen with Inderbinen.

But it's a place for opinions to be spoken, we don't censor based on what we like or dislike, but anything offensive or defamatory is removed if it is Brough to our notice or we happen to spot it.

Just picked up my tenor from Dave after an extended and, as ever, impressive service. When I dropped it off the shop was being refitted, there are now 4 cabinets of OW lineage saxophones, more available and, all being well, production restarting. So, if you are genuinely interested drop him a line, go try one, or watch Nubiya Garcia at the Proms. available on BBC iplayer, and/or Livestream Ed Jones @ 606 this weekend…..

Ey up. You may not have heard of Dave Walker Saxophones. I just bought a tenor and it is just incredible, it really is. At long, long last, a saxophone that doesn't get in the way of what I am trying to do. If you are curious, the only place you can get them is Leeds, UK. All Brass & Woodwind. You'll have to try one to believe me, but it'll be the best thing you ever did.

You make a good case, Steuart. Since I am not able to try one, I cannot believe you.

That aside, what other horns have you been playing?

A short distance from my Hobbit hole at my Shire. My donkey Eeyore walks slowly. Will be mid summer arriving if I choose to travel and explore the option. Meanwhile, can you offer more details ? Maybe comparisons to others you have played ? A TJ Raw, Conn or other ? Please do describe your experience in full best you can. This even if you’re limited on known brands for reference of experience. I’m not being snarky. Your opinion matters. The experience of a regional maker or refined at dispatch stencil is of value.
