Paul,

It''s not surprising you like the 3C. Adults are physiologically different than 10 year olds and can focus the sound in a larger mouthpiece better than a young one can. To be honest in terms of size there isn't a lot of difference between a 3C and 1 1/2C so AB ing them can be difficult to the uninitiated.

Get yourself a horn. It would be cool to be able to do the Vivaldi Concerto for Two trumpets with your son for his graduation. Monette? Why not? Just get your chops really, really together first and then sell your first born.

Regards,

Trevor
