Craig: Tighten your lig so the cushions start to compress. I just got off the phone with John Winslow. Great guy and he knows the horns we play. Oh, his lig is cheaper than the SAXXAS. $100 shipping to you included in the price. You can move your lig back and forth a little. See how your tune goes? Do put your reed on first. You don’t want to scratch your MP. Tim
