I do like the 3C a bit more, even after the week I've been playing on it. It's opened my tone up slightly, and for some reason seems to allow me to use air more comfortably. My endurance took a hit though, or atleast thats what I feel.

"Gaining range" is likely the wrong term. I've hit high G's sustained and in pitch, but I'm not comfortable up there and find myself searching a bit. I'm satisfied with my current range, but would like a little more confidence in it. "Ease of the upper register" is likely more of what I'm looking for.

I'm simply curious what would be a good mouthpiece to devote to the upper register, not to rely on. I'll be on the 3C unless it's a completely high piece, period. In other words I'm looking to pursue method #4.

So what is a good piece range to look at? Should I just hit the local music store and run through the selection? Can I accuratly gauge how right a mpc is going to be for me in the store, or does it require a month or so of acclimation to truly tell?
