This was randomly recommended to me, but I have to say man, you have a great sound.

@Sirvalorsax 4 года назад

Thanks

@donearnhardt6336 3 года назад

Both necks sound great, but the $90 neck seems slightly brighter that the Cannonball neck. Not necessarily a bad thing.

Thank you so much for telling us this information. I was considering doing this to my alto sax, now i know a little bit of research 👌

@leonply 4 года назад

With your smooth, sophisticated technique, I think that you could use a toilet paper roll and still sound phenomenally world class. You, Sir, are a true artist!

@Sirvalorsax 4 года назад

Great idea! I might have to give that a shot!!

@think2023 4 года назад

I always call it the neck tenon. The thing I call a neck plug is the plastic bit that plugs the neck and protects octave mechanism while in case. And....REALLY appreciate these videos.....makes bargain shopping a low risk activity!

@Sirvalorsax 4 года назад

Thanks for watching. I didn't realize that they are essentially the same thing until I saw the repair guy pop this thing off.

Sirvalor, its a joy both to listen to you play and to hear you talk so lucidly and honestly about what we just heard. I learn so much every time. I don't know if your talent will get you a recording deal (it should!) but your range will probably get you signed to Marvel - its super-human! It would be great to hear you release some tracks on Bandcamp - I'd love to sit down and hear you play your own music.

@Sirvalorsax 4 года назад

I'll look into it. I'm trying to find some online platforms like that to get my original stuff out there. Thanks for the tip!!!

I bought a neck for my Bari to accommodate a large bore Berg Larsen mouthpiece. The neck was sold by Songtielun on eBay and shipped from China. It did take 2 weeks to get here. The finish was perfect and it played very well with the Berg Larsen and a 2 1/2 reed. It was just a bit long so I trimmed about 20mm off the mouthpiece end and recorked it. No complaints and it cost $99. Even though I primarily play Bari, I enjoy your channel and I benefit from your insights. I look forward to your next video.

Very happy with Eastern neck on my 1965 mk VI. Original neck has more complexity harmonically but eastern works great for funk, fusion . latin etc where power and very strong centered tone are needed. Straight ahead and ballads i go for the original.

@KevinKingII 4 года назад

I usually find the stock neck tends to be the best neck for the horn unless its damaged or defective. Also, you make it sound like a piece o cake on the outro tune!

@bobblues1158 4 года назад

I have to say that it sounded REALLY good compared to the Cannon Ball necks. But that´s my ears! i am checking it out as a second neck for my Yanagisawa TW020 Bronze unlacquered. Same reason-mouthpiece size. Eastern has the same underslung octave key as my horn. Thank you as always!

@manuelvalencia9407 4 месяца назад

You should do a video on pairing reeds, mouthpieces, necks, etc. with saxes. I'm sure many of us sax players would be interested in that.

@johan0234523 3 года назад

I used to have a Buescher Aristocrat tenor that actually sounded better with a French Beaugnier neck than with the Buescher neck. But yes, there's a lot of difference (also in intonation) between necks.

@manuelvalencia9407 4 месяца назад

It seems like that Eastern Music neck is a little more brighter than the Cannonball neck. For the price of that Eastern Music neck, that sure is a very good deal. Great video, too. Thanks!

@PedroMoraisSax 4 года назад

I have some products from them, with small adjustments they are excelent

@esemge9092 Год назад

Both necks sounds great. I have tried the neck resonanz tuning by SMG Custom Saxophon Service Germany and can say, that every neck i send blows after the tuning more freely. I think the 90 $ neck with tuning would be on the same level.

I also found that different reed strengths gave me more favorable results, for me softer reeds responded better in the low register and really projected well with out loosing resistance. It was odd. Also the upper register seemed much more brilliant.

@Sirvalorsax 4 года назад

I like to start with stiffer reeds and play them until they loosen up. I'll usually play it for 10 to 15 minutes or on a couple of easy songs and then switch to the more comfortable ones until it starts to loosen up more of time.

@javierquesada798 4 года назад

I imagine that it will be of the measure of the sermer. Another point I bought a new otto link is · # 5 which rod would you put on it, I put # 2. and another thing that is uncomfortable is to adjust the reed.

@brianlabbie 4 года назад

I got an eastern music power neck, alto, underslung. The neck quality was awful. terrible qc. The tenon was soldered on crooked and the section where it says "power neck" was crooked with solder sticking out around it. I found it to be really free blowing and the sound is great, but that QC..

If you don't mind me asking, was it worth the price? I'm thinking of getting an Eastern Music alto sax (the Mark VI copy). I saw a video demo on it and it sounded great for the price.

@unfinished93 4 месяца назад

@@manuelvalencia9407 eventually I had to sell it. Not sure about altos but overall with all experience I gained I’d searched for some local used sax because I had to pay customs. Also keywork is not that solid and feels plasticish. Still a good sax, better than average Chinese sax

@davidsmusic 4 года назад

Good video! What about a video showing your setup to record? For me is difficult okay with a normal volume when the mic of iPhone get a satures sound for some tunes. I would like get a microphone, etc. But what can you recommend about it? Regards master!!

@Sirvalorsax 4 года назад

I use an external $20 microphone with my android. It captures the low end of the sax and my voice very well

@curtisvalle5141 4 года назад

Good Sir, Very interesting...Thanks, Pretty complicated fluid dynamics happening. Assume free blowing is an inverse function of back pressure. The mpc/neck interface introduces turbulence.. How about a one piece neck and mpc? or a set? sounds expensive. That shirt instantly pissed me off but the smile is the kicker. I gotta buy one.

@curtisvalle5141 4 года назад

Hoe bout an oversized neck with the cork on the inside? tunable, yet reduces constriction. Anybody saw off a neck to reduce the length at the cork? Freer blowing? Not obvious. Rounder tone/intonation issues?

@Sirvalorsax 4 года назад

I haven't heard of this. It would be very interesting to see this though.

Which neck tenon size did yo get for the Mk6?

@stephenriley6541 4 года назад

@@Sirvalorsax I am sure it was the 27.5 maybe.. my ebay account won't let me look. The 19m one was 28.3 I think.. anyway, both fit really well. I used a calliper to measure my original first . My 6 is from about 1969. 😀😀

@stephenriley6541 4 года назад

Sorry 10M

@stephenriley6541 4 года назад

Update.. just measured my mk6 original neck and it is 27.6 . I think the original Chinese neck was 27.5 . The point making no difference to the fit. The same neck way to small for my 1949 SBA .

@javierquesada798 4 года назад

For the first time if I noticed the difference in the necks. It may be that if I change the reed, the sound may change. I did not believe that

@Sirvalorsax 4 года назад

The angle that the mouthpiece enters the neck can make a big difference also.

@PaddieFunk 4 года назад

How would you describe the cannonball sound?

@Sirvalorsax 4 года назад

I would say they are neutral. The offer many variations of lacquer for their saxes that can lead to a darker or brighter sound but I think compared to a similar horn from a different company, they are pretty neutral. I like this quality in them because it gives me more freedom to go bright or dark as opposed to having to overcome a horn's inherent bright or dark quality. The Dark Amber Lacquer offers a type of "smooth EQ" to my ears.

@richardcasey7521 4 года назад

@mattsax_music8439 3 года назад

You can unsolder the part of the neck that goes into the sax and make it larger or smaller or replace with a different one and just reattach it. If that makes sense
