I've just purchased a Kohlert 57 and it needs new pads
I've been leaning towards prestini's or white roos w/ brass noyeks

Yes or No

Suggestions?

Tenor ? Alto ? My 57 tenor is kind of extremely dark , even darker than my Big B , considering putting Roos / Noyek reso to get some buzz . Tell me what u get after repadding this killer .

I used regular selmer style on mine and they do fine. the flat metal resos mould probably be as close to original as you can get. The originals were similar to Conn resopads I think but I doubt the right sizes are available. i will be trying coned resos on my next one I think.
