| I played a Kanstul Meha a few years ago with the same valve guide setup and my favorite Conn Vic has a similar arrangement- you get used to it. Keep in mind that you are playing on a B1 and an 800 with an open mpc. It's been a while but I believe the B1 is rather open blowing. Your student's horn is supposed to be a Bach Strad clone. Compare it to a Strad or Yamaha student horn rather than to your Schilke. Of course that particular horn could still be a dog which would be an issue with the dealer - can't believe they let an instrument out in that condition. Times have changed since I was in the business. |
