If you talk about a fine tuned Bb side on Alex103 & other horns, do you probably have in mind playing this g1 with 13 ? Using 1 instead makes it flat on most Bb-sides, while the same note played on the F-side is no issue at all.
If you tune any horn with concert "a" played on that instrument, the F-side might be sharp a bit, but the Bb-side sharper again. Why not trying to use c2 (2nd space) on the Bb-side & the F-side, played to the given concert "a" to get a better result ? A horn with a weak or flat or sharp g1 on the F-side is just a roll-over-horn (remember Stan & Oliver). ######################################################################################## Am 28.01.2011 um 14:13 schrieb Chris Wilhjelm: > > Funny thing about many 103s (and other horns with fine B flat sides) the > second line G is often more secure and in tune on the B flat side > > c > >>>> Ralph Hall <[email protected]> 1/28/2011 5:17 AM >>> > > Ralph R.
