Be sure, it will not be the last scratch. If scratches would affect the tone quality, every brand new mpiece should would be better, but lose its quality due to mini-ware ???? Would you not better think, that the tone quality has more to do with the players embouchure ???? Do not follow the old path of many players, blaming the equipment. It is not the equipment (except it is wrong completely), but it is more the player, who makes the tone.
Next time somebody might ask, if a black dress is better suited to produce a darker sound than a greydress ??? No end for curiosity. _______________________________________________ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
