Re: Reversed Leadpipe

I played a Yamaha Xeno with a reversed lead. The concept is for better air flow. I tried a Bach Strad first and then the Xeno. The xeno blew the strad away, as far as it being easier to reach the high notes. That's just my opinion. I'm sure more will come, & stomp on my opinion. Try playing some trumpets in a store if you can that has a reversed leadpipe and see if you feel any difference. This way you can make your own decision.
