Lightbulb Wedge vs Prana Monette mouthpieces

Hello, I'm french! So it's difficult to me to try american mouthpieces: theyre is no retailer in France...

What can you say me about Wedge mouthpieces, is theyre as good as Monette prana?
If you play with, what the inconvenients with each? What the avantages?
I have read all that's writted in the wedge and monette sites, but all that they say is theyre mouthpieces are fabulous... but I don't know what to think...

Thank for helping

Rémi

Salut Rémi et bienvenue sur le site des meilleurs trompettistes au monde ! Hi Remi and welcome to the site of the best trumpet players in the world ! Marrant : j'ai un fils qui s'appelle Rémi mais il est batteur. Funny : I have a son named Remi but he's a drummer. Où habites tu ? Where do you live ?

Re: Wedge vs Prana Monette mouthpieces

Okay, Monette Prana- play high on the pitch center so if you play neutral and aligned they will play right in tune, they also have a tremendous huge sound, and if you get the slap cup great articulation but they takea while to get used to and aren't for everybody(no mouthpiece is) ,
Wedge- strange rims but supposedly very comfortable, and very flexible so the main plus to wedge is their rims otherwise with cup depth backbore and throat they work like conventional mps,
Au revoir, je parle un petit francais, bon chance avec un mouthpiece :)
