Newest Monette series horns!

Bugleboy21 · 01-09-2006, 10:58 PM

Notice the good head posture and proper use of the one-handed technique. Actually, I like Monette and have used their mouthpieces for years! I thought this was a funny pic though...and it got your attention! I never saw a man playing a horn like this in Baghdad, but it woulda been cool!

Good corners though.

And to think he play this well with all the hashish he smokes for breakfast...

(did I spell hashish correctly?)

Your gonna get a call from Dave you know...

"how did you get those spy cameras in my shop?"

Is this Manny after the makeover?

It's the new Monette Pirahna model.

sorry guys, I just had to ;) hehehehehehe

ROGERIO · 01-10-2006, 10:23 AM

Trent,

But this model makes it difficult to play any scales...

Something fishy about this. I don't think Dave Monette would release a new model without Manny being involved.

Is this the instrument that Dave is now making Manny play having seen that Manny has been commenting in the Eclipse Contest thread?

From what I understand, you don't need valves to play all the pitches in the chromatic scale. The new "universal pitch center" concept enables a player to hit every not perfectly in tune by only bending the partials of one harmonic series. This was developed by Dr. Mailkow Dropping and was given to Monette for a free buffet at Star of India in Austin, TX. Of course this technology is patent pending, so don't steal it.

(of course this is all false...and btw, I love Indian food!)
