Oh man, that is exactly what I did - wax. =A0But I also put scotch tape ove=
r it after speaking with my NY repairman Woitek Komsta (maybe someone on th=
e list knows him?). =A0Anyway, the crack, all though quite long (from the t=
op, through the "prestige" label and until the A key) is not all the way th=
rough the bore. =A0The horn played well for yesterday's concert, so I'm jus=
t hoping it will make it until the end of the week.=A0
So.... whats the judgement? =A0Wax and scotch tape over the crack that does=
n't go through to the bore, to prevent it from growing. =A0Thumbs up or dow=
n? =A0

You are correct.=A0 If the crack does not penetrate the bore, putting wax in
it does nothing.=A0 Super glue might prevent the crack from growing, though.

If you have to mic a saxophone, the rest of the band is TOO LOUD!
