Hi, have any of you ever fixed your micro-tuner so that it no longer turns?
My sax has been to my repairer and is working beautifully... with the tuner fairly tight down, and with the mouthpiece on fully... in order to be in tune with other instruments the tuner needs to be out quite a long way - and the mpc is also not on the cork as far as it could be - being so far up you can imagine the tuner is now loose and this affects the lowest notes, making them very growly which is more than annoying.
I guess there's 2 options - one lock up the micro-tuner at the correct point, or, attempt to get hold of a different crook without the micro-tuner - which I'm imagining would be like getting hold of hens teeth!!
