Hey Folks
After 30 odd years playing an electric guitar (and owning the usual Fenders and Gibsons) I have realised that I will never be very good. Im almost as old as the Rolling Stones, so I dont think I am going to suddenly get better.
My young daughter picked up the flute and learned to read music almost overnight (something I could never do on the guitar) and so.... with my love of the blues, I turn to the sexiest instrument in the world - the Tenor Sax.
I have always loved the sound so I will step towards the light and buy one. My 11 year old daughter can teach me to read music and perhaps we can play together some day.
Right now I am just looking at saxophones deciding which one to buy. Those nice people at sax.co.uk have already helped giving me a free lesson in their sound proofed room so now its down to deciding what to buy. Being told to try them all doesnt really help as I am not beyond that classic tune b-a-g-a-b-b-b
So my new friends - I am willing to throw £1000 at my first sax... what should I go for?
Cheers
