Manny,

I am curious to find out how intonation on monette horns is comparing to more conventional instruments like bach, selmer, schilke etc.

As all we know especialy on smaller horns like C, D and E flat trumpets there is always few notes which needs a correction (for example on some C trumpets high E and E flat are a bit flat, and bottom c tend to be sligghtly sharp). I would like to know how Monnette equipment (mouthpieces and horns) are comparing to that. I assume that I have not been always using monette equipment and that you have tried also playing monette mp with a "conventional" horns and non-monette mp on monette horns.
