What if I can't by that stuff bro.
I might fly to Vegas just for a lesson with you Charles. I've been following you for over 20 years
If you do want to do that, you can reach out to Charles for a lesson on his lesson bio page on our site here: kesslerandsons.com/las-vegas-music-lessons/charles-mcneal/
i cant remove the screw thing its too tight
Then you might need to take it in to a repair shop.
🔥🎷🔥
One of my slides won’t move, that gonna be a problem when I give it a bath?
Yes - you should instead take it in to a qualified repair shop and have them perform a professional cleaning/service. Then AFTER your instrument is back to proper working order, incorporate regular cleanings into your maintenance routine. Do not try and do this cleaning if you have stuck parts or damage.
@@KesslerCustom ok, thank tou
I tried the signature in the UK. and it is one great horn!
Great reviews- I tried the signature tenor for almost a month and sent it back to the store, as much as I loved the Signature I have the desire to try the Supreme before making the financial decision of purchasing one of them for good, I also tried the Supreme neck on the Signature and it was fantastic. I will try the Supreme once it is available but I think you can`t go wrong with any of these horns and BTW, I think I will be selling my 1963 Mark VI once I try the Supreme.
Amazing tone quality. Superb playing!❤
Charles McNeal I’ve found another hero! I love your style. I’ve been so impressed all day with the Signature and then I heard you on the Supreme with this neck change, the original set up has so much quality and with the Signature neck there’s a lot of punch! I like that Supreme!
Was he playing on the Series II Jubilee? If not, would you get a similar effect with a Series III neck on a Series II Jubilee?
Thank You for Posting !
Then you just put the mouthpiece in place and you're all set, right?
yes, at least thats what I did
Sounds good!
Good video. Howarths make exquisitely exceptional Oboes! My LXV sings when played. 😀 BTW...Howarths also make all the Oboe versions, bassoons, Clarinets, Flutes, etc. They do not make every instrument like Buffet Campion or Yamaha... Howarths do make most woodwind instruments.
Will this make the trumpet sound better?
Brass instruments are like guns. often times, you have to disassemble them to get them cleaned up so that they stay in good shape. a dirty instrument gives poor output.
I like the signature more...supreme is more open but signature is more centered and compact,more dense sound
Thx Charles, sounding terrific and really appreciate your thoughts on them!!
Looks like I need to pick up a Signature neck to go with the Supreme now.
We've got them on order... $660 in dark lacquer
Thanks for the reply. My Supreme is brushed gold.@@KesslerCustom
@@richardjones990 That would be $672 and we would do that on special order. E-mail us at music@kesslerandsons.com if you were interested in that.
Fantastic playing, loved it. There is something about the Supreme that I really appreciate. It has a big bolstering, fill the room kind of presence about it. The Signature neck on the Supreme seems to bring a focus to its sound. The brushed finish on the Supreme takes it to the next level. Thanks goes out to Kessler and Sons for putting this review together. Thank You!
Glad to help. Yes, the Supreme has more presence for sure, and brilliance. The Signature / Signature neck adds more traditional focus/core/warmth that is more commonly associated with Selmer tenors in to play on both horns.
Both sound very good to my ear. Between these two I lean towards the Supreme with its standard neck. I own the Supreme myself and it's a very dynamic soulful instrument.
Lots of good options either way you go!
They both sound dark
Great playing ! And some valuable insights…
i would get the Supreme with both necks.
Both are good... Charles liked the Supreme with the Signature neck the best - however, I (Dave Kessler) thought he sounded better on the Signature body with the Supreme neck - but thats because I like the darker core of the Signature.
Yeah-endless fun!!@@KesslerCustom
Great review!!!
What mpc and reed are you using?
The new Selmer signature is better than Supreme. It's darker. Supreme is annoying and it's bad. I don't understand the people who like him.
Total personal preference in the end. The Signature is definitely more "traditional" Selmer with a darker, more focused tone - but it is also more resistant. So if a player prefers less resistance, then they will find the Supreme to fit more of their liking. The Supreme is more open of a sound as well. All personal preference. When testing with Charles, my personal favorite sound was the Signature body with the Supreme neck, but Charles preferred the Supreme body with the Signature neck. All depends on the person!
I like him !
I kinda liked the Signature better!
Definitely a great horn with a darker, more traditional Selmer-esque core for sure! We really liked the Signature body with the Supreme neck. What a combo!!
Yeah Charles!
first
Just coming back to this. Now this if a F******** review!!!! Bravo.
thank you for this Guide I needed to clean my trumpet before the school year I needed to clean my trumpet before the school year and this helped a lot and this helped a lot I needed to clean my trumpet before the school year and this helped a lot
Hands down, the new Supreme beats the other two. Much cleaner sound with very crisp intonation. Hope the new Selmer tenor follows suit. 👍
Wow! You really made the SA80II sing, Charles, especially when playing the blues. Having said that, the Supreme and the Reference 54 outshine it. To my untrained ear, the Reference slightly edged out the Supreme in tone. I dunno, it has a slightly more vibrant feel to me. I guess the real difference between the two is the player's feedback. Which horn made it easier for the player to express himself or herself. Great comparison video. Had to watch it several times. 😁
I’ve played Series 3 (gold plated) neck on both my Reference saxes (54 alto and 36 tenor). Great combos, and far better than the originals. The Series 3 neck there really opened that Series 2 up. Good sound advice there from a master. 🙏
Ty it help me clean my insides
SA80 SII
How long should I let everything air dry?
I recommend 10-15 minutes
So, I'm a broke student and bought an old trombone for 150 bucks. I tried to run a snake through it and it was black when it came out.
Then keep cleaning!
It is way easier to compare if you switch quickly from one sax to the other in the edition, I can't tell any significant difference, most of the difference usually is how it sounds to the player live, and how it feels when you blow. Other very important is how well the sax is constructed, will it stay long in adjustment? will the metal of the keys bend easier? will the laquer last long? There are some Yanis from the 80's with some very decent looks still. I have a very nice sounding and looking sax but, the laquer started to go out very quickly with only normal use. It goes out of adjustment quicker, One post was poorly solder. And so on
Excellent video! My Artist Series will soon be ready for its first bath! Thank you!
Would the III neck on the reference make as big a change (improvement to my ears) as it did on the II?
Unfortunately no. The III neck and the Reference neck are much closer to each other in design/weight than the II neck is.
Charles for me is not only a super saxophonist but a great character as well .
You'll get no argument on that here!!
sa80 for the win.
This will help when I need to clean my trumpet 😊
Many thousands of dollars separate these horns and yet the Kessler’s warm, pleasing tone keeps right up with the top of the line Selmer. I play a hand made Kessler Custom soprano and I’m continually impressed with it’s sound, intonation and key action (for a “budget” instrument).
My trumpet has a few splotches and specks where it's not shiny like the rest. Will washing my trumpet fix these?
Depends on what they are... but most likely not. What you are describing is likely damage to the finish/lacquer on the instrument. Take it in to your local repair shop for evaluation - or send us photos at music@kesslerandsons.com
@@KesslerCustom if it is damage to the finish, is it something that can be fixed by a repair shop?
Thank you for an excellent informative video. Very helpful.
