I never recommend putting lubricant on a slide. " Really? That's interesting. May I ask why? (Gotcha on the embossing though!) -chuck

I have found that embossing the reedslots with help make a Koch more airtight. Also, some Koch's don't have windsavers. And I never recommend putting lubricant on a slide.Gary

Hello all. I'm working on a Koch 10 hole chromatic. Any tips on reducing leakage? I did find that the slider is off to the right just a tad and needs to be tweaked in. I also hear a little "clicking" from what I presume are the windsavers on a couple of reeds. I'm not seeing any cracks in the comb, at least from the outside. Anything else I should be looking for? How about the slide itself? Are these generally lubricated with something? Thanks! -chuck
