 Re: 63mm barrel for Yamaha Custom CX

Hi Jennifer, I don't think so. I think they go down to 64mm's. However I am not positive. I am a Yamaha Artist and I did text them. No one replied yet. They may not reply as this is a really busy month because they are filling 1000's of school orders.

If I don't hear from them it's surely a no. The interesting part is they order about 1000 at a time from Japan and a person in NYC adjusts them. He puts assorted tapers on the insides of the bores.

Do you have a tuner? They cost about $30. Korg makes a very decent one that includes a metronome, but there are other brands as well which can do the job. You can even download one from the internet. The goal is to hit about 440 or above. But the upper register may go a shade flat for now until your embouchure gets stronger. This simply takes patience. Every player goes through this. In fact the saxophones are much more forgiving. Give yourself at least 2 years before worrying too much and the idea that you are aware of this now is very good.

I just read the posts above and they weren't there when I wrote this. Both of these guys are really talented so you can trust them. Lastly I'm in the process of going into the barrel biz, so if I feel I come up with a good barrel I'll
let you know.
