Everyone I know with a Cannonball (be it sop, alt, ten, or bari) seems to have a very sharp high register (C# & up)

I was able to fix this by putting a crescent cork in my D tone hole.

Was just curious as to everyone elses cannonballs & how they played in the upper register in terms of intonation.

The Big B alto I had for a while was sharp in the palm keys, but no more so than any other horn. The intonation for the rest of the horn was the best of any modern horn I've played. I'd lower the palm keys, put down your right hand keys (DEF) for high C# and play on!
