Hi
I just bought an elkhart 330 curvy sop and noticed it has a cork instead of a pad on the octave (neck, not body) key.
It leaks. I know this because I held it down with a rubber band and the sound difference and playability is amazing.
I'm nowhere near a good tech and wondered how difficult it would be to replace with a proper leather pad, and if so, where could I get one from. I don't really need a full set, but not sure if I could buy just one pad.
