Best Answer

It doesn't ruin the outside of the Saxophone because the outside is made of brass, but it will mess up the pads underneath the keys of the saxophone. If you got the saxophone wet to a high degree, you might want to get it checked out at your local music store.

Can you soak a tenor sax in water?

ABSOLUTELY not. You should never soak any instrument in water, especially a saxophone. Although trombone players can run water through their slide to clean it up, a saxophone player doesn't have that luxury. A saxophone is a very complex instrument as I'm sure you already know. Saxophones are one of the more expensive instruments in the band, and they should be taken care of that way too. I'm sure you also know that saxophones have pads under the keys. Soaking these pads will ruin the saxophone either quickly or eventually. Getting pads replaced in a sax is a big expensive job. If you're looking to clean your saxophone, purchase a swab to push through it a couple of times. That is how we clean our saxes! Take care of the horn, it's the best instrument in the band. ; )
