           Yep Scott I  say that too and people ask me what I asked you. It 
would be like " you really  took lesson's from Magic Dick and Jimmy Hall?"

hands on. I have a C melody too.  It was my grandfathers and is quite old now. 
I've had it rebuilt 3 times and  use a 5* Brillhart tenor metal mouthpeice. I 
started on trumpet too but  can't really play one now. Don't really want to 
either. I really really want  to get a pocket sax and try it. Has anybody here 
tried one? I'd really like to  know what you think of it.

When  Bobby tried to teach me trumpet I couldn't get my mind around making
all  those notes with only 3 buttons.  Then I saw Eddie playing around with  a
trumpet using a clarinet reed mouthpiece.  And the Sax with a  trumpet
mouthpiece.  I didn't really hang out with him, but he did  give me some
pointers, and the tip that stuck with me all these years.  "Syllablize."  Is
that a word?  I had a "C Melody" sax I was  learning on back then, and I
still have it but it needs  rehab
