My workaround - for all of the "low C's" - was to either give them to the trombone player or take them down an octave.

I stayed up way too late last night, and and drank a little bit (not too much...never overindulging) as well...

...but this morning I got up and my slurs weren't very good...

...so do y'all recommend going Pollard, Amado, Saturn, Joy, or soldering over the holes?

Thanks for lending y'all's expertise. :thumbsup:
