Introduction Hello!

[pauloalto]

Hi everyone,

I've been playing alto for just under a year now. I love it!

At the moment I'm practising improvisation. That and trying to speed my fingers/brain up.

I'm working through some Jamey Aebersold - it's good stuff!

My alto is a Yamaha YAS 275. I think it's great, but I haven't got any basis for comparison. Occasionally the G# sticks but other than that I haven't had any problems with it. I'm starting to think about looking into a new mouthpiece...

Hi Paul and welcome to the forum from wet Welwyn in Herts. You might want to check out the 'stickipad' thread to help with your G# problem.

Cheers, Bob

Nothing wrong with a YAS 275 - one of the best student horns around. good choice. Oli
