Your Baritone Setup

[kryz]

Yeah...
I'm the guy who get's that Berg soon
Changed my horn to a B901 and the Link HR doesn't work to good with this horn. I currently have a Charles Bay Mulligan Edition on trial which is actually very nice and free blowing but very expensive

We'll see...

best wishes

Chris

Hey Chris!

Funny, here we are...! The Berg is in the mail, let me know when you receive it please. I'm looking forward to the rubber Link, hope it all works for us both!

best, DC

just got it in the mail last week. I'm still trying to remember how to play after 9 years off.

Gretsch Commander. It's a Buescher stencil using the TrueTone/New Aristocrat split bell tube and a combination of TrueTone/Aristocrat keywork (has a pearl G# from early TT but a roller Bb). Engraving is Art Deco, so probably early 30’s. Nickel-plated keys. The lower octave key cup has the tiny fitting for the Buesher snap-on pad, but that’s the only snap-on.

Right now, it’s all stripped down with new corks, felt, teflon, and waiting for Black Roo pads with seamless domed resonators. No mouthpiece yet, so I didn’t really try to play it before refurbishing. I bought a Rico B7 and a Rovner ligature off of the web and they should get here about the same time as the pads. Can’t wait.

I'm happy after over 50 years with my Yamaha 62. I play a vintage mid 50's Gregory #6
opened to .115 and 28mm facing length by Mouthpiece Guru, BOB CARPENTER, with his personal "3 step facing curve." Number 3 HAHN synthetic, and Rovner Mk III ligature.
Does everything I ask of it. For real glass breaking, a BOB CARPENTER refaced mid 60's
Level Aire opened to .125. Stock ligature, and #2 Hahns. Very funky, tremendous volume when needed. Find your own thing.....Hope it doesn't take you as long as it did me.
