Ken,
Interesting compilation.
My experience is a little different on some points.
Mouthpiece bore size generally matters more than barrel bore. I believe this is because the mouthpiece is closer to where the sound waves originate.
The shape of the barrel bore does not itself affect the intonation. Only the volume and its position do. However, this means that a reverse taper barrel could affect intonation more than a parallel bore barrel with the same volume just because the bigger volume is placed higher.
These ones must have been mixed:
"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."
A bigger bore mouthpiece always widens the 12ths in the upper left hand tones. If you play a C major scale and have trouble reaching up to the last 2nd register C6, a bigger volume mouthpiece will help.
