Is it worth it?

I currently use a Monette MFIII and I am looking into upgrading to a Prana version of this mouthpiece. My question is: Is it worth it? If so, what are some of the benefits you have recieved from upgrading to Prana? Thanks!!!

Re: Is it worth it?

I have just upgraded from a STC-1 C1-2 to a Prana STC-2 C1-2 S3 with a larger backbore (81) What I've noticed is a faster response, and the Slap gives a better feel when I have to play extreme registers (low G to upper G and higher in the same phrase) I wish I understood the differences between the Standard and Prana designs, but (sigh) it seems to be the latest trade secret.
