\"\"<\/a>Pete Hales, the man formerly known as Saxpics<\/a>, and I have been working together for over a decade. Our love for vintage saxophones has taken our research all over the globe as we have researched some of the most obscure, and famous, brands of horns built since Adolphe Sax invented our instrument.<\/p>\n

Pete and I share many loves, including a love for minutia. Whether it be the bits that went into a particular German saxophone model from 1929, or the last server overload that is causing our websites to stall, Pete and I appreciate the same things, and can relate to each other in ways that are unique. So unique in fact, that during the course of our friendship we have often joked that we are siblings separated at birth, given how much we have in common. <\/p>\n

For nearly a decade now, Pete and I have also been virtual roommates, with our individual websites sharing VPS space. That said, Pete hasn’t migrated his previous content from his domain\u2014thesax.info to our newest hosting provider. Why? Don’t know. I suspect he got busy with other things, and focused his saxophone-time on our combined gallery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I will leave it up to Pete to do what he wishes with his older content. That said, some of it very much dovetails with the focus of Bassic Sax<\/a>, which is why I’ve chosen to include some of the relevant pages here, on the Bassic Sax Blog, under its very own section. <\/p>\n

The articles linked to on this page are Pete’s work, and his alone. Since these articles are quite a few years old, I may have substituted some images here and there, changed the formatting, and updated expired links. The written content however, is his as it originally appeared on thesax.info <\/p>\n
