Re: Scratched Table

Hello,

What you describe shouldn't be a problem. Especially since you've played it with no ill effect. I will usually run my fingernail over the scratch and if I can feel it (a bump), then I'll sand it out. If there is no bump, then I'd ignore it. If you do decide to sand it out, be very careful (I would recommend having a mouthpiece refacer do it to be safe), because it is very easy to change the facing inadvertently. Most mouthpiece workers will do this kind of work for little or no money.
