I've been able to play (on two different occassions) the Eclipse White Lightning that was made for Paul (Horn of Praise). I was equally impressed both times. It blows very easily, much like my Schilke B1. Low register is full and middle register took very little effort to achieve what I wanted to hear. I didn't purposely try to overblow the horn, but when I used big and fast air, the horn responded wonderfully. With Paul's Monette B4-L mouthpiece, slotting was confident and resistance was low.
Great tone, in tune, terrific workmanship - certainly an instrument worthy of world-class status.
