Hi Linda!
You probably will find that your EH will have unstable notes in the second register Ab and G. I've never seen an EH that did not have these unstable notes which are built into the instrument. They occur because the lower part of the instrument has resonances near the note resonances which are then pulled off frequency a little. Just check them with a tuner and find which right hand keys need to be fingered to stabilize the notes. No amount of bocal or reed changing can change mother nature: just learn good alternate fingerings for these notes.
Congratulations and good luck! The EH is another great challenge!
