Hey guys
~To Wulf, I recently played a relacquered Super... nothing amazing there. Is your Mercedes a Mt. Vernon or NY Bach? I started a thread earlier on those horns, and Mercury model Bachs.

~Walter
The Committees are awesome horns, I think that they're beautiful, a kind of understated elegance. The Recordings were also awesome horns, I've never played a straight Recording. My Super Recording handles unlike the other Supers or Specials or Mendez's I've played. The Committee I played was a superb horn, I'd love to get one. They are so easy in the middle register, I couldn't even find the "break" in the horn. So smooth.

Cheers
