Hi all,
I have recently bought the new Vandoren harness for my bari, and it is wonderful, if pricy (yes, lots of you commented on this in a previous thread, but it works for me). The only problem is that the hook won't go up and down easily when I try to adjust its length, so going from Bari to alto necessitates a mighty heave upwards holding the hook steady.
Can anyone advise on a lubricant to ease the mechanism? It consists of strings that wind too & fro as you adjust the hook up and down, and it should hold steady while you play, but not really be THAT hard to alter.
Any suggestions very much appreciated. (I shall try to get advice from Vandoren as well - it cost me enough, so it should work seamlessly!)
