Frequently Asked Questions
The 670 offers a more focused and controlled sound than the 84, leaning towards a more refined orchestral timbre rather than the 84's broader, more resonant character.
The TU03 is a good starting point, but players exploring a wider dynamic range might prefer experimenting with a more open-faced mouthpiece to maximize the instrument's potential.
Regular cleaning with a specialized valve oil is crucial to prevent corrosion and ensure the smooth, consistent action of the valve CPU ball joints; neglecting this can lead to sluggishness.
