 Re: lifting your first finger?

3 weeks ago, i did an experiment with the repairmen (whilst doing an emergency covering of a smal check which luckily was not a crack), we made the diamond hole smaller and the height of the top plate lower. High register was easy and in tune, middle c# and d was pure enough and good. After a week, all my half hole notes began to stop responding well. Upon the repairman's inspection when i finally got it back to him for a full overhaul, he said that the hole has indeed become smaller because the wax he used seem to have collapsed a bit. Since it is something so personal as you describe it to be, i think i will sit there at his shop for one day after the overhaul just to make everything perfect.
