The fun's already begun, based on your answer to #2. Good luck with the bass.

If you're like me you start rich and with a wife, and you wind up poor with a horn. Just kidding. My wife is fighting back. She's ordered a saxophone. Keep in touch, Bob. I too just got a Selmer bass. I'm trying to figure it out. Let me know what you discover that is worthwhile, and I'll do the same for you.

Isn't this how "Deliverance" starts?
You know Burt Reynolds practices 6 hours/day on his brand new Ophiclede and his wife tells him to go play somewhere that noone can hear screams.

OY! Yer gonna haff sum goot fun now. I envy you. I'm still shaking the trees for an old LeBlanc contra. As for passifying the wife, I had to sell one of my classic Triumphs (M/C) and buy her a new flute and picollo. Now she doesn't gripe so much when the UPS truck stops at our house with a clarinet sized package.

Ken I purchased an alto sax and decided to let it sit for while. I don't want to think about differant fingering etc etc. Offered to the wife and she said NO NO NO. I guess that means she not interested.
I'm looking for to the bass. It should be a lot of fun.
Snyone for a sax? (this is not an ad.) only a comment.
peace
