Thanks for all of the tips Johnny. I will get the sax checked out tomorrow to make sure it doesn’t have leaks. I’ll give the 2.5 reed a try but I’ll pick up something a little lighter when I am at the shop just in case. I played for about 5 years (I played tenor then). First in school, then in a small Jazz/Rock band (3 horns). That was a long, long time ago though. In my mind I kind of think I can still play a little but that is in my mind. lol
