Re: repadding a Buescher

I wouldn't recomend those - they are too fat. if it does have snap ins (which is why I asked the s/n) simply get some dejur deluxe pads, .160 thick and install the snaps onto those - takes a lot of work, but it takes no keybending.

Right, but if he allready has snap-in pads installed, he would avoid having to key bend by purchasing the snap-in pads. Buescher snap-ins have always been thicker than modern conventional pads and replacing them with thinner pads would cause problems as well. When I first purchased my 400 tenor, it was clear to see this effect where the original pads were replaced by drilling a conventional pad as a substitute.
