Ooooh, good idea. one I hadn't even thought of (despite the fact that I HAVE encountered it--scary, huh?).  However, still no see-gar.

A likely cause, but no, more obscure than that.

 Jack positioned too far forward in repetition slot (i.e. forward of the knuckle core).

The problem: There were a couple of notes that, when played really hard, would not speak at all (no repeated playing of the note involved).  Other than that, these notes work just fine.  This was something I had never seen before, so it took a few seconds longer than usual to figure out what was going wrong.  Any ideas about what it was?
 

 
 
Have a great weekend,
