I agree about the Legere. Once I got used to mine (2nd one) I can hit that C fairly easy, even a D on occasion. But, still prefer cane.

Another thing to try with the E is using the RH C pinky instead of Eb key. Sometimes I use that for better intonation, so don't know if it helps to produce the E when you're learning E.

I would beware of taking in more mouthpiece. Yes, that will work, and have to admit I tend to do that when really up there in and around that double high C (if that is what C7 is). But really you are supposed to keep your embouchure and amount of mouthpiece you take in steady. If it's a matter of not taking in enough for playing in general, that is another matter.

I looked it up. Why is is called C7? It is only the 4th C counting low C.
