 Re: Throat A/G# and "Lost Motion"

> I'm presently trying to take out the "slop" between the E/B and the "crows
> foot" on an OLD Kohlert, so will welcome all advice .

Along Chris' line, I had cases where the crow's food proved unbendable (or I'd have to disassemble it all the times as not to exert undue strain to the pillars and all). I resorted to shimming the underside of the E touchpiece with thin cork or ultrasuede. Ultrasuede has the advantage of providing just the right amount of flexibility to cater for unequally "worn-in" pads. Cork, on the other hand, can be far better sanded. In a nutshell, bend the foot so that it looks right and feels halfway right, and shim with cork.

I don't have this problem with my Marigaux. No more crow's foot, just four neat adjusting screws...
