This is the lesson 4 me! Hope I don't get a case of the yips 😮 thx 4 the help Jay

[EricPalmerBlog]

Great work as always Jay, after a year and a half of coming back from a 43 year pause, I am at the phase where this kind of content is good advice. In parallel within the last 6 months I have learned all the major and minor scales in a kind of music theory obsession. This course looks great and I will seriously investigate it.
Always good to hear you play. Wishing you continued success with your whole product line!

Took the plunge to grab a soprano saxophone. Thanks too watching your videos

[MrDaneBrammage]

As a bass player, hitting the chord tones is a well-worn skill from playing walking bass lines. But getting outside the usual rhythms takes work.

[BANDLDR]

Curious….Are these lessons/tutorials just geared toward saxophone in Bb or Eb, or are the materials and etudes usable by concert pitch instruments like trombone or rhythm section players?

[WaioluUkulele]

First do you have a printable version of that music sheet with the chord tones for each chord and secondly do you offer any monthly payment plan (like your school program) to purchase one of your better sax tenors? I wouldn’t mind getting one

[edcohen]

Great video, Jay. Thx. ONE QUESTION: Are you planning to offer a BetterSax soprano? (Preferably a straight sop with 2 necks???)

[smply.chrs]

I just got my new Jody Jazz Jet mouthpiece for Bari and it’s always squeaking and doesn’t sound good at the moment. Can you help me fix that?

[XtractGG]

Am I the only one who js watches his videos where he plays, transcribes them and fits them into my improv 😭

Root, 3rd, 5th, and 7th. But that changes for blue notes, right?
