I've used key clamps since the early 70's and don't understand
anybody who doesn't keep a set on their horn. The clamps are easy to
use, and keep the pads from distorting due to moisture accumulation.
This will greatly reduce your trips to the repair shop. The clamps
also protect the mechanism during travel and there is no adverse
effect on spring tension.
Key clamps are available for soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone
(specify Bb or A) and are $45 + $5 shipping per set.
Don't leave home without them!
