Alto Saxophone

A still life of my father's saxophone, for his birthday. It is from the 1920s and has what is called a "good patina". A lot of student-grade, well-played saxophones like this are still around. A lot of the lacquer has worn off, which effects the sound in a way some people like. But that isn't the interest of my father. This was given to him by his parents when he was still a student. He turned 59 today. He wishes to buy a new saxophone, but wants to improve his technique more first.

10%+ will continue tomorrow. This took all day...

Done with Microsoft Paint.

I learned I drew the mouthpiece upside down. Embarrassing! But, corrected! And I improved the "Martin" text. My apologies to sax fans!
