That little lot will cost me around £125, given that my music shop doesn't currently stock any of it as standard (small-ish shop, UK based). That's about the cost of a fortnight's groceries for me and my partner.
Perhaps you could explain to us what the setup sounds/feels like, to give us some idea. How/why does it work for all Yamaha alto players? Who says so?
Ok, i now see the flaws in my original statement. This set-up was a self preference at the time, before i had a drastic change in my taste of playing. The next time i write a trolling post, ill be sure to have some type of evidence. And i agree, Hemke's are slightly inconsistent, i have since moved to something else. Thank you for the insight, guys.
