Tech/maintenance Haynes Saxophone Manual

[Stephen Howard]

I like the bit that says "Stephen Howard - Used: Very Good". Sounds about right.

"Slightly foxed" would be a more accurate description!

I purchased Stephen's Saxophone manual last year, and it's been VERY helpful in teaching me how to do neck corks, set key heights, replace and set pads, and more. Mine is the 2015 edition. I got it from Abe Books for $25 last November. Much appreciated!

There’s one on eBay for £312.69 and £21.20 postage. It does mention that there may be delivery delays due to Covid. Maybe she’ll take an offer. There’s also one for £80.00 but it says it’s a reprint hence the bargain price I suppose.

Why would a reprint be cheaper? Aha - collectors item people want the 1st edition.

A little catching up for you to do:

Tech/maintenance - Haynes Saxophone Manual - an update

I have today had a confirmation letter from Haynes informing me that the "Rights Reversion" for the sax and clarinet manuals has gone through. What this means is that all rights to the books are back in my hands. I'm in the process of establishing precisely what that means with regards to...

Ah I see 🤔☺️👍👍👍 great for all those that missed it first time around but I think if there are any revisions or extras it'd definitely be worth getting an updated copy for sure 👍

Not in the foreseeable future.
Plain truth is I'm just too busy with work these days - but it's still a project I'm interested in. It's just a matter of finding that time.
So don't wait up!
