| Wawa,
I play Monette mouthpieces for a variety of reasons:
1) financially, it's not a burden for me
2) the intonation is superior to anything else I've ever played
3) the sound is very brilliant and I like the way his mouthpieces compliment his horns. Nothing else I've tried works as well on his horns as his mouthpieces in my experience and i have a lot of experience.
The Prana is a very free-blowing mouthpiece and requires a player to have great control over his breathing and a very stable embouchure, even more than Dave's previous mouthpieces.
