I don't use Asymmetrics anymore, but I fully agree with your view on people's opinion on this mouthpiece. Six minutes is not enough time to adapt to a new stick shift (for those who drive them) let alone mouthpiece. During the time I used the lead model, it definately helped me play the lead trumpet parts my senior year of high school. Though I didn't see any "extra notes" per say, I definately felt that my playing was more efficient. Anyways, in my experience speaking with John, he'd probably say go for it. Asymmetrics have been customized by customers more than some people think. Many people use Warburton backbores on Asymmetric mouthpieces as an example, and I think I've seen Nick Drozdoff playing a gold plated Lead 342. Nick, could you chime in here and tell me if I'm right or wrong?
