In this episode, we take care of an ailing saxophone. Is it as bad as it seems?
Thanks for watching.

I've never seen anyone use a hot air gun for leveling keys. This is a major innovation. I didn't see any damage by the heat gun to lacquer. Thanks for such a great demo!
Sounded like a goose was stuck in the horn. That's a sharp looking sax.
Hey Wes, thanks for speaking to the class of Red Wing last week. I really enjoyed this PC level of work. We are working on these exact issues in woodwinds class right now. Thanks for the great content!
That's a pretty horn!
That is one fine looking instrument. Really strongly built (as it looks). She is a lucky lady to have what I expect is a fairly expensive instrument. Nice job Wes!
You're incredible Mr Lee. Maybe in my next life you can spread your brilliance over my King Zephyr tenor.
Nice! Reminds me of my decades with Music and Arts Centers. Diagnosis was a huge thing back then. It’s difficult to find “real” woodwind and brass repair specialists anymore.
yay! a new video!
Great job! even if it is just a squeeze on a cork, keep up showing everything you do!
Cannonball Raven big bell stone series 😍🎷 What a beauty of a horn and amazing player! The stones are beautiful Tell the owner stop beating it up!! 😂 Just kidding Great repair vid!! Keep up the good work!
That’s awesome!
That is one goodlooking machine.
the master at work! nice man
Awesome…
seeing the same brand of horn that i have makes me happy for some reason lol
Nice job.
Great !
Sweet!
Thanks
Everyone needs an easy win every now and then

I was admiring the black touch pieces on some of the keys and notice the high F side key had popped off. Horn manufacturers need to step up their glue game. This happens way too often. There are many modern glues and epoxies that would make that sort of thing virtually impossible and for only a few cents more per key.
You are quite right here - If all manufacturers would put just a touch more adhesive it would make repairs like this super easy! Thanks Wes for another awesome video!
Hey folks, please try to do a better job of matching resonators on the pads you replace. Did you notice the 'G' pad? If you can, match pad color as well. I know, it's a Cannonball but at least match resonators. Lastly, make sure there's enough glue to support the pad. Many manufacturers are going with little glue and shims these days!
👍👏🏻👏🏻
I have a 1990 something silver Yamaha trumpet that needs a good cleaning because it hasn’t been played until recently.. Sounds airy when I play it and valves sound scratchy when pressing them down. Need another project to work on?
Looking for a restoration of high school Schilke MkIi trumpet. You want the job, or can you suggest someone in NC? Valve honing and cleaning is all. Why his it so hard to find help with this?
It seems like it is always that same area the gets bumped.
Where can I purchase a hot air gun? Is that a Allied product?
