I have a tenor Brilhart Tonalin that has a decent sound but the low C# and down are difficult to get out. It's not the horn. Any suggestions other than Ebay? Thanks..

Can you check the facing length?  It may be too short.

Keith, I made a command decision and sold it on Ebay (It went in 20 minutes) before it went the way of the other clean pieces I attempted to improve. The Brilhart was to good for me to touch. Before I do any more w/ mouthpieces I'll have to get some tools and more knowledge and of course inexpensive junk to learn on. One more question. What's the best way to bore out a tenor (Berg Larson) hard rubber mouthpiece and what should be the "standard" diameter. My Guardala is about .660 of an inch. Thanks, Doug...

Dug,
Take it to COZ woodwinds, he'll take a large hammer and chisel to 
it, it will fit like a glove.

SUBJECT: Re: Boring out a shank
I use a coarse 1/2" dia sanding drum on a rotary tool.  This allows you to
enlarge straight and tapered bores.

I have not developed specific targets for each sax bore.  I handle each one
individually.  If a client does not complain, I do not touch it.  You never
know what kind of neck cork they have.

Tenor bores typically run from .655" to .688".  the average is probably in
the .665"-.675" range.

Is this a "*" facing?  (4*, 5*, etc).  The * facings are very short and 
difficult in the low register.  Lengthen the facing and they are quite nice.
