There's no getting upset here, Liad.

Simply put, I understand exactly what you mean. If there's a concept that one has then you go with what amplifies that concept. If you wish for something other than that concept you go for that "something else" no matter what it is.

Dave's horns don't sound like anybody else's (that I've played). What it sounds like is what I like now and have for many years. It's not everyone's cup of tea or taste. I don't think Dave built them to suit anyone's taste but his own which is what I thought you were inferring. Fortunately he encountered enough people that did like it so he could become a successful instrument maker.

What else could anyone want? It's nice to have a big enough world with choices for everybody who wants to play. I don't think there's an instrument maker who can't satisfy at least one person's taste. But, at least, the maker should satisfy hmself.
