Yamaha CSG - low F correction key

Author: Aussie Nick

Hi everyone,
I switched from Buffet Festivals to Yamaha CSG-III's almost a year ago. For me there has been no looking back - they are fantastic horns.

However, I have had some (right) hand position problems in relation to the thumb rest and the extra correction key for low F. Essentially I find myself accidentally slightly opening the correction key at times. I can alleviate this by raising the thumb rest higher, but I then find it's not as comfortable for me as I do not have particularly large hands. I like the thumb rest about 3 clicks down, but then have the problem with the correction key placement.

Has anyone had experience with altering the position of the correction key? I would assume this would be something an experience tech could do with relative ease?

Your thoughts and experiences would be great. Thanks
