Voltrane will become famous soon enough
Hello,

Dave, buying horns for each other is a very good idea. I would be very happy to try some Monette, Wild Things and some other horns that can be found in every supermarkets in the States but are not so common here (only Selmer Paris can be found in supermarkets)...When you are ready with a significant sample of each, tell me, my private jet will immediately take off to Denver...

I have no real information about the TTM (M stands for "Maillechort"). I only saw recently this :

http://www.aremus.com/produit.asp?de...02337314891994

The advertisement is very basic: it says the TTM is "easier" than the TT because of the "maillechort" leadpipe. According to my dictionnary, "maillechort" is the french name for an alloy of copper,zinc and nickel.
Why is it easier than with the standard leadpipe? No explanation.
In the Selmer Paris website, there is no TTM...
I hope I can see and try one.
Regards
Marc
