Re: Why go below 3?

I moved from a 3C to 1 1/2C and sound better and feel that it better balances with the way I play, the type of music I play and the equipment I use.

Mouthpieces are such personal pieces of kit though and what some players achieve by going larger some seem to achieve by going smaller. Context and the environment you normally play in, I suspect, play a large part as well in terms of how you want to sound. I went for a 'larger' sound that maintained brilliance. Ultimately you're looking for the 'Goldilocks' scenario.


Regards,


Trevor
