I, too, have a second valve slide that is too long. Mine is on a Sterling, but I have not found the gumption to cut it. I think it would bring the pitch up, but...
I am interested to find out what you think of the horn besides this one problem. Many disparaging comments have been posted about these extremely inexpensive horns.
I played the alto horn sonata on my graduate recital, on peck-horn! What a hoot.
Hickeys.com has the music... their catalog # 02974.
Good luck
