Rattling sound in the lowest holes of Lucky13 Bb
Posted: Sun Jun 18, 2023 7:15 am
Hi. I received an Easttop Lucky13 Bb yesterday (in Richter tuning).
When I draw or blow through one of the first two holes, there is a rattling sound. It's especially noticeable when the note stops sounding. I removed the cover plates to check if it's because of the reeds hitting the cover plates, but the sound is still there. So I would guess that this is the sound of a reed hitting the valve. How do I fix this?
