Re: Why do I burble from G down?

Hi Cooper,
Thanks for your input. You are actually very encouraging because my Lorée is out to be revoiced by someone I can definitely trust to do a good job.

Being 25 years old and never even a pad changed, "the whole nine yards" are being done. But I personally have found no difference in its playing between now and way back when I was capable of playing anywhere between A=435 and A=450. In fact, and I think, because of my new engineering methodology experimentation on reeds, it plays with better tuning and stability now than before.

This makes me wonder why Lorée has not changed to fix those notes? Unless there is something about the climate in Europe (I think they are hot in Japan too)? From Québec to Montréal to Ottawa (I imagine the same for the North-Eastern States), Lorée has always had a reputation for those unstable notes.

Ah well, 25 years together means I'm keeping it!
Cheers and thanks!
