Well my C Mel came in today. So much to do. All the keys work, though some of the action is loose. It needs a total pad replacement. The neck does not pull out, but it does spin freely when seated. I plan to replace all the screws and springs, provided I can find thread matches and the right springs for an 1916 or C Mel from Martin. The entire sax needs to be polished up. Finally the case looks great, but it does need a new handle and it smells funny(can I air it out or can I use a spray to help it out.
I am not sure what step one should be. Also any suggestions on the best bang for my buck as far as new pads and maintenance tools?
