That's doable - it's a case of making and fitting special pillars to mount the combined LH F/C# key to, then adding the link to the C# touchpiece. And it should fit in the case as it's all above the existing feather key barrel instead of next to it.

It does however place the LH C# touch over to the left (as you're playing), but that's where it is on saxes and clarinets anyway and also on older oboes like Leon Goossens' 1907 Loree.

Howarth of London
1998 - 2010

The opinions I express are my own.
