Oh! I tried that combination but I had an enormous amount of trouble with the fluffle valve, I couldn't locate the seals, I just gave up in the end, it just didn't come up to the mark for me. I got an mp3 player instead.
Yeah, that happens. I mean, sure, you CAN go that route, but then it sounds so...digital, you know? I was looking for more of a... salacious sound. What I've done is put a tiny piece of sandpaper on a long metal rod and sand the inside of the fluffle valve from the cylinder hatch, which will expose the seal, which you can then beat into submission.
