I have a student with a bari sax that is cursed.
Part of the problem is that the neck and body are in 3 pieces and are supposed to be in 2...
Fixing it the best I can, when F# is in tune, and everything else is relatively correct (as in tune as you'd expect a saxophone to be), her B is playing about 40c flat. I currently have her playing any held B's by pushing the octave key and the G key to bring the pitch up to about 20C flat then lipping it up.
Is there anything I can possibly adjust or a key height that I can move so that she won't have to do this anymore? I mean, other than the obvious getting the saxophone soldered together again...
