| John, I could go over to Scotts, but if I'm going to make a change, I want to do it pretty soon. I think that the sound issue that I am having with the Holbert piece has more to do with the cup than with the backbore, but I could be mistaken. I have been many times in the past.
I'm not sure just what the deal is with the 5C. Maybe it's the rim. Maybe it's the bite. Maybe, it just doesn't seat right in the receiver. Like I said, it's got a great sound, but it just isn't happening for accuracy. All I know is that I want to bring my best to the table on that upcoming performace. It's too bad my accuracy is crummy with the 5C.
Another dilemma I have regarding this mouthpiece issue is time. I don't have a lot of time to go around fiddling with and trying different mouthpieces and setups. I wish that I did, but I don't.
Maybe I'll have Craig bring some mouthpieces for me to try at the next gig. That way I can try them out, and give them back if they don't work out. |
