Hey, Mike!
How are things in Texas? I hear that you are getting together with Jesse/Still Trying, soon. He's really looking forward to blowing on your Eclipse MHY/Savannah/Gold accents!
Heck, you're probably going to be very busy visiting relatives that ya won't have time to do any playin'.... so, just drop that horn off with Jesse! He'll take good care of it!
My main horn is my Eclipse Equinox, in scratched gold/shiny gold accents. I enjoy it for the great responsiveness, its feel, and its looks. I can't imagine improving on the Large Red bell, as far as the sound is concerned, on the Equinox. I know that I've posted about it before, but... the sound is so full in the low, and mid range, with an upper register that can part hair, if pushed. I really enjoy playing it!
Leigh has made so many great horns that it's tough to stick to just one! 8)
Best always,
Bruce
