I have no issues with tenors and baritones, but high-pitched saxes (especially in free jazz) are extremely abrasive to me.

i can see where you're coming from, but i love skronking. to me, it's a way to take away from that notion that the saxophone is a ladies man's instrument and puts it in a more powerful position. but, hell, if all you can do is skronk, then you might as well not play.
