Besson 983 Eb Question

I know that the 983 is an extremely mouthpiece sensative instrument, so I bought a Dillon/Sheridan PS3 mouthpiece when I got the horn.

I have since discovered that, articulation and tone are better for me using a PT-72. The problem is that the overall pitch is flat (as reported elsewhere in the archives).

My question to you 983 owners is: Has anyone cut the tuning slide on their 983? How did you do it (more correctly, WHERE did you do it)? Do you recommend the process?

Thanks!
