Question: My saxophone is making a poor sound!?
Mind, I don't care much for it
but if i had a good sounding saxophone it would probably give me an incentive to take it up
so any ideas how to give it a better sound
it's mainly the lower notes eg C, B flat, DWww@QuestionHome@Com

I think a stronger reed is a better option!. If you play a number 1 reed, go up a step!. Higher, and go see a music shop for your best bet!.

You could also try pushing in the mouthpiece further in, as that can also affect C and D heaps!.

There could be some moisture residue in the bell, so clean it out with a DRY cloth!. That could be blocking air!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
