Introduction g'day

Hi all,

I'm a noob from Australia and just bought my first Tenor Saxophone. I would like to buy Pete's DVD but is there an Australian distributor I can order it from or can I buy it through the site?

Cheers

thanks peeps! 🙂 I am really keen to find out if Pete Thomas' DVD can be bought in Australia? If not, how would I go about buying a copy and having it sent over?

Cheers
Shane

Nice one Shane!....sorry.

I'm sure Pete will be along soon to talk business. I'm sure there is a solution somewhere.

Welcome to the forum! What tenor did you buy?

 

[Tenor Sax]

Hi,

Welcome from Lichfield in Staffs.

Have fun with the cool tones of the Tenor. "Nice"

Hi Nightowl and welcome to the Breakfast Room

You can buy it from my main site, just go the home page and follow the link. It is multi region PAL, make sure your TV/DVD player is PAL not NTSC. Please also note the DVD is for alto so can be a bit confusing for tenor players as the notes sound at different pitches.

Thanks for your reply Pete, I will do that 🙂

Linky_Lee, I wasn't sure how far I would go with playing sax, as I am a full time singer/guitarist working every week and not sure if I could dedicate enough time to learning. So, I opted for a cheap Chinese Tenor (After reading info on SOTW I kinda regret it now) to start with and if I get more involved I'll buy a better one.

The whole Bb concept is a little confusing! I have never played with horns in a band (in 18 years) so I have a bit more studying to do!

Cheers
Shane

Some Chinese saxophones are OK.

 

[night0wl]

This one is a "cheap 'n nasty" from a "best bargains" store. It will do the job for a little while anyway 🙂

I just ordered the DVD so I can't wait to check it out!

You know how people customize crap old cars, spray them up, upgrade the parts till they tick over OK and don't look so bad...........

That's me with cheap, crap saxes, hang in there buddy, I love the damn things. It'll do til you "pay your dues".
