Yeah, I think you are right, and that's what I figured, and I was sorely tempted to do the studio stuff on the Bach. Thank the Lord for auto-tune!

I have a friend that had some of the same kinds of issues when he went from his ML Strad to a Z horn. At first he said that the horn was so tight that he didn't like it, and he had some intonation issues. But, within about a month of gigging Latin Band on it, he was blowing the walls down and got to where he really liked the horn. I think that he still has it and uses it as his primary horn for gigging.
