Re: Modification...I need advice

I would send it out for repairs, jim.

Re: Modification...I need advice

Try moving the reed over to the opposing side so that the tongue has room to vibrate. If that makes the pull reed hit the other side then the chamber is too small and the blocks were not made right.

Re: Modification...I need advice

I have a feeling the chambers were made smaller to for better compression. It's only one chamber that is to small.

Thanks for the advice, I'm thinking of stacking more wax to raise the reed a slight bit. I never thought of this.

Thanks again
