Mouthpieces Haynes Saxophone Manual

[Mix O Lydian]

Can anyone please tell me what happened with the Haynes Saxophone Manual? Did it eventually get republished under a different title. The last mention on here was in a 2022 thread. Thank you.

Not currently in print and copies are expensive, with some chancers asking a small fortune for a copy. There is a seller on eBay (Nothing to do with me) asking £75 for both the sax manual and the Haynes Brass Manual.

@Stephen Howard any news on a new edition?

Yes I have seen they are quite pricey on eBay, much more than I would be happy to pay.

I would like one, but certainly not paying the bonkers prices these comedians are trying on, taking the pizz and then some..

Maybe I will try charity shops, car boot sales, basically all the places I would not normally think to look ... There could be a copy lying there for 50p or something! 😀

There's bound to be a bargain one somewhere, the trick is finding it !

There is quite a lot of info out there - depending on what you want to do and what your capacity is. PDFs, YouTube, web articles (Inc. Stephen's site), questions here. I'm sure the book is the ultimate, but depends what you need.

I suppose I could rent mine then?

I was lucky. My (adult) kids got me one for my birthday off eBay, I think it was about £60.
Very good condition but silly money although seen them for more.

How about an audio, singing the book?
Vocal duet with Willy Nelson and Patsy Cline. 😍

Or do a Rap version ( with your hat on sideways )

Probably suitable.
When I'm having trouble fixing things I use more expletives than the average rap.
