| Re: Flugelhorn advice needed I bought my yamaha bobby shew flugel at the w.w.b.w.in new york city before it closed down.Man I really miss that store.I spent a lot of saturdays just trying out tons of horns.The shew to me had the best intonation,played easiest in the high register and slotted the best.I remember I e- mailed Bobby Shew with some questions about the horn and he quickly e-mailed me back with such a friendly and lenghty reply.Anyway,what ever horn you choose,please make sure you have the additional time you'll need to spend practicing.Trumpet and flugel play quite different and if you take time away from your trumpet your playing will truly suffer.Hope you really enjoy your new toy,which ever one suits you best. |
