I assume you are referring to the Bach Chicago C and not the Yamaha.. I
think it might just be you. We have two of them at my school and the
principal in my orchestra has one. All three play extremely well and sound
excellent. Very fast response. Pitch on them is considerably better than a
stock 229/H. I played a post-strike Chicago C at a conference and was also
impressed with it. My principal doesn't think it projects enough at the very
highest dynamic levels.
