 Re: sax not letting air through

While this doesn't sound like your problem, once on a gig, I "stored" my metal mp cap in my AS's bell, wanting to NOT drop it on the floor ! Sure enough, it ended up stuck in the bore, and the lower notes just wouldn't play. Easily solved. I have had some "randoms" and always found it related to differing pad seatings , high on the horn, due often to worn shafts/pivots which can cause pads to shift position. Check the horn for "slop" in rods/shafts, get repair help AND oil the moving parts occasionally. Luck, Don

Thanx, Mark, Don
