Here is a general tuning correction list.
It is a good starting point and doesn't cover all the possibilities.
-------------------------------------
Lower register flat and left hand upper notes sharp?
*Barrel bore too large.
Third register "altissimo" notes flat?
*Barrel bore needs to be cylindrical or mouthpiece bore too large.
Third register "altissimo" sharp and the throat tones flat?
*Barrel bore needs to be conical, (Same or larger toward the bell).
Twelfths near the mouthpiece too wide?
*Barrel bore needs to be conical, (Same or larger toward the bell).
Sharp up to about A in the second register and flat above that?
*Mouthpiece bore is oversize.
Flat up to about A in the second register and sharp above that?
*Mouthpiece bore is undersize.
Sharp in the upper part of the second register and the lower altissimo notes?
*Barrel bore too large.
Flat in the upper part of the second register and the lower altissimo notes?
*Barrel bore too small.
Left hand twelfths too wide?
*Expand the bore around the speaker hole either conically or cylindrically.
Altissimo is sharp and the twelfths near the mouthpiece are too large?
*A conical barrel will help.
