okay after a few days of getting the springs set right, life is good. I still need to get used to how this monster alto plays, but I have faith it will get better with practice. So I made this video this morning and it's helping me to feel better about getting this horn... it feels boppy and is a joy to play but requires good, stable air support to get things moving. I love the action, blah blah blah you get the idea, I like this horn. Also I delacquered the bell hee hee..
