Thank you very much for the nice job, the foolproof packing, and the informative service. Other than a few minor nicks, it looks like it probably did 50 years ago.
Chadd,
It was delivered Friday evening. I had left town for the weekend, but I've finally had a chance to unpack it and give it a whirl. You did great work restoring it. Other than a few minor nicks, it looks like it probably did 50 years ago. And I'm pretty sure plays just as well. If you need any testimonials on your site, let me know.
I'm not exactly used to it yet, but it seems like a little more play will do the trick. I've tried it with my 3 mouthpieces, and I'd say the Selmer 5** is probably the best for it. As for intonation, it's a bit different from my Yani, of course. But it has a nice tone, overall, I think. It will be interesting to see what my teacher has to say about it tomorrow, since he has a much more exacting ear than mine (damn it). Thank you very much for the nice job, the foolproof packing, and the informative service.
