Well, if it is high pitch, or has some cracks or mechanical damage, then I would
agree. Maybe he was able to play on the horn when it was in perfect condition and
it just didn't play well.

However, maybe he doesn't like albert system horns and thinks noone else does,
either. If it is low pitch, I bet some Klezmar guy would be very excited to get this
horn working. Maybe it has a lot of open finger holes and his hands are not large
enough.

Of course, I have a pedlar alto clarinet and I could not get it to work. (got every
pad tight -- there is some really weird mechanical linkages.) my tech says it is a
monster and is saving it for Halloween. Ho joke. He has had it since April.
