Hey,
Ive just bought a new tenor and Im super happy with it (It is an Australian brand, called Temby). Anyway the only thing with it on the high A, i get a very fuzzy sort of sound. It only occurs on the A every note above it and below is ok. I think it could just be the octave key mechanisms are slightly out of alignment or something, but im not sure. I read somewhere else a lot of Tenor`s have it and often it is only heard by the player and not by those listening.

It could be the pad, but then everything else would be fuzzy. Maybe it`s not aligned right ect.. hope i helped

It could also be your embrouchure, depending on how long you`ve been playing. Like when I first started out, my higher notes were all fuzzy, but the longer you play, it just goes away.

Hey,I play Tenor also alot of times it makes a fuzzy noise if one of your notes are bent.Go to a repair shop and tell them the problem and they can fix it in a few days after you get it back you wont hear another fuzzy noise unless you do something with it like drop it or you hit something while your playing.Have fun.

It could be your embrochure, i used to have the same problem. You just have to lip down and tighten a little bit. But if your really concerned take it to the repair shop, also your sax could be really resistant maybe you just have to get used to it?


good luck - scarlett
