5052	Science vs Common Sense. Saxophones are mostly made from brass, which is an alloy mostly of copper and zinc.

Various finishes are available: different types of lacquer and metal plating, e.g. silver, gold and nickel.
5053	Pros of buying a used saxophone: A used saxophone is the most cost-effective option. With literally thousands of choices, a used horn can usually be found in your desired quality and price range. Also, the materials and craftsmanship of older used horns is usually superb.
5054	Raw Materials. Saxophones are primarily made from brass. Brass is a composite alloy made up of metals including copper, tin, nickel, and zinc. The most common type used for instruments is yellow brass which contains 70% copper and 30% zinc. Other types include gold brass and silver brass which have different ratios.
5055	Other materials are used to make the saxophone. Most of the screws are composed of stainless steel. Cork is used to line the joints and water keys. In some cases, a wax is applied to these joints. Mouthpieces can be made from various materials, however, the material has little effect on the sound.
5056	This is a big decision when it comes to buying a saxophone. A lot of newcomers to the instrument don't even think about used saxophones as an option. If you are on a limited budget, or are not afraid of the research and legwork involved with a used saxophone, that may be the way to go.

5062	A modular home is one that is built indoors in a factory-like setting. The finished products are covered and transported to their new locations, where they are assembled by a builder. A modular home is not a mobile home; it is simply a home that is built off-site, as opposed to on-site. These homes are often called factory-built, system-built or prefab (short for prefabricated) homes. Modular and manufactured homes are not the same. Manufactured homes are not placed on permanent foundations.
5063	With stick built homes, your home is built on your lot, so there is no need to worry about what could happen to your home during transportation. A stick built home also offers higher quality construction because your home is built board-by-board and brick-by-brick on your lot.
5064	The cost of constructing a modular house runs about 10 to 20 percent less than stick-built housing. Putting up a modular house takes far less time than the stick-built version. With a modular home, all parts are pre-cut, pre-cast and ready for assembly.
5065	Building Codes: Modular & Stick Built: Modular houses and stick-built meet the same building codes. The difference with Martell Home Builders is that we do BOTH types of construction and can advise you on what is best for your individual needs and situation.

5067	Your modular home might come in a kit, with the price varying according to the size and the manufacturer. Kits range from $14,000 for very basic housing to $100,000 or more for customized, higher-quality units. Modular houses must meet the same building codes as their stick-built cousins.
5068	In some areas, there is still a bit of a stigma attached to a modular home, although that viewpoint is changing. Resale value might be similar to stick-built in parts of the country with a high percentage of modular home construction, such as the Southwest. While high-quality modular homes retain their value, lower-quality homes may depreciate faster than a stick-built counterpart.
5069	Resale Value: Modular: Well built, high-quality modular homes retain their value well. Stick Built: Traditionally, constructed homes held their value better. But that is changing, now that modulars, like Martell Home Builderâs are of high standards.
5070	Modern modular houses can be indistinguishable from traditional stick-built homes. They also cost less to construct than the stick-built variety, so-called because they are built out of lumber, or sticks.. Modular house prices are generally lower than stick-built houses, often considerably so.
5071	Modular & Stick Built: The same cost when comparing âlikeâ materials. Modular: Well built, high-quality modular homes retain their value well.

A modular home is one that is built indoors in a factory-like setting. The finished products are covered and transported to their new locations, where they are assembled by a builder. A modular home is not a mobile home; it is simply a home that is built off-site, as opposed to on-site. These homes are often called factory-built, system-built or prefab (short for prefabricated) homes. Modular and manufactured homes are not the same. Manufactured homes are not placed on permanent foundations.

5063

With stick built homes, your home is built on your lot, so there is no need to worry about what could happen to your home during transportation. A stick built home also offers higher quality construction because your home is built board-by-board and brick-by-brick on your lot.

Resale value might be similar to stick-built in parts of the country with a high percentage of modular home construction, such as the Southwest. While high-quality modular homes retain their value, lower-quality homes may depreciate faster than a stick-built counterpart.
