The Griffalo (2 sax monsters)

[rhysonsax]

Griff has been rebuilding an Olds Super tenor for me and very kindly dropped it off at my house.

He took the opportunity to get to know my Low A Bass Sax ........

You'd have thought Stephen would have made an effort to clean up and decorate his new workshop properly!! Come on Mr. Howard, first impressions count for a lot you know!!

To hear a great bass sax performance go to You Tube and listen to the Uptown Lowdown Jazz Band playing "When My Best Gal Turned Me Down"

Lovely stuff.
