Thank you Ebonite, thank you Max.
I found some info on the site, and I found the Clark Fobes observation that you mentioned. One of the "negatives" mentioned was a sharp throat B, C, C#. I did notice when playing this instrument, that those notes are indeed sharp, especially the B.
I will see if any correction can be made by my repairman, but the low E Eb are "barely" in tune.
It is a very nice instrument otherwise. It was sitting around for twenty years, Ive been playing it a little everyday for a week and it is "loosening up"-Pads are good, I think it just needs a good cleaning.
Certainly plays better than the Kohlert, and plastic unbranded horn that I have-though the plastic thing has EXCEPTIONAL intonation, and is very easy to play. Way better than it should be. Ill never get rid of that one but the Kohlerts going.
