Re: Eclipse MR Gold

I'm sorry Noel but I have to disagree on there being only 3 types os Eclipse owners...........You forgot the fouth type.
Dumb Luck..........the just plain lucky ones of us who have managed to win on of these beautiful trumpets!!!! I still can't belive I have one.

back to the original question, I have only had problems with the tuning on mine once. I was trying some different mps to find what suits the horn and for some reason two marcinkiewicz pieces played quite flat (in this trumpet only) Every other brand has not been a problem. Now I have settled on a bach 3c which for me gives me what I want. My recomendation is to actually phone Leigh or John as they take alot of pride in their instruments and would most likely hate to think someone is not completly happy with their trumpet.
Well thats my two cents worth.

Noel,

That's just about the finest thing I've ever read on any trumpet forum ever.

WOW!!!

It does not get much better than this. One of the few times in my life that I have nothing to say. (Probably will not last long...)

Thank you all

Great post, Noel!

Makes me want to try an Eclipse. Oh wait, I did, at ITG. And loved it!

Great instruments, great people!

BTW, I will see our mutual friend on a gig tonight, Ron Horton. I will be sure to send regards.

Re: Eclipse MR Gold

Just wanted to say a big thanks to Justin, Jordan, Richard and Robin et al - it means a lot to me to get feedback like that.

It was a pleasure helping Gene to do some long distance testing and to get to the bottom of his experience with his MR.

Very happy to report that all now seems to be back on track.

Noel
