Hey there-
The bell is the only thing that is liteweight on the elaboration, but man does it sail! It can play dark and open when you want to play a jazz ballad, but last night on my salsa gig, it really peeled paint above high C. very responsive, with a solid core to the sound. Everyone keeps thinking it is a Bach of some kind. I love Bach horns as well, but this Elaboration is to me, a better player than the Bach 72* L that I played....it's all personal. Make sure you try out both the 37 and the 72 bell.....
