Ahaaa, I see, that's why you are moving...

Thanks Toots

You've told everyone my secret now! okay its true, we don't have rubbish bins so we just let it build up wherever it falls for a period of around 7 years. By this ytime we can hardly walk across the room for the stuff so we have to move workshops.

Simple as that

The new place will be lovely and clean Toots, we have spent a lot of money to ensure that our workshop is second to none over here.

Best Wishes to all dirty people

Good luck with the new factory/shop Leigh. From the pics it looks like it potentially will be great. You must all be quite excited. I will be over in the UK for a couple of weeks in the summer so hopefully I could come and visit. Is it near Dunstable still? I want to have a night out in London with my wife so I thought we would go to see the Producers as you rate it so highly and it would be good to hear Noel! I would also like to try the Large Red trumpet again, and the Cornet if it's ready (If not it will have to be the year after! - I can only afford one horn at a time anyway!)

My Eclipse Flugel plays wonderfully - it's absolutely perfect and exactly what I wanted - thank you all at Eclipse again.

All the best,

Graham.

PS - remember to buy a music stand!!!

Leigh... as long as you have a fridge "to keep the milk in", and you are gentle with the "guy next door" when deliveries are made, you'll be OK. (You know... don't accidentally bend forward at the same moment he does?" You DO have neighbours at the shop, don't you?

Leigh,

The new factory is looks great! I'm sure that you'll soon enjoy being able to go to only ONE facility each day... not to mention that minor luxury that you'll really enjoy... sleep. I would bet that Radka and Shannon will also be glad to have you home more, too. Everyone at First Class Brass will rise to the occasion, and we'll all benefit as a result... which is the best part!

I wanted to add to what Graham said earlier, with regard to the Eclipse trumpets, and clarify his statement a bit.:

Quote:

The Schilke is a lightweight trumpet that is, as you say, very comfortable to hold. The Eclipse is heavier but is still comfortable and well balanced.

The Eclipse trumpet feels very "balanced" in the hand... meaning that it's not bell-heavy. It's also very "balanced", in playing terms... with a very even, and in tune scale throughout the playing range. And, as Graham also pointed out, they are very responsive. Their playability is exceptional across the board... Bb's, C's, and Flugels.

Best always,
Bruce

Nothing wrong with women at all: I'm married to one and have two daughters. But... there are some places where I wouldn't necessarily want them to go..... think "Texaco Station".
