[QUOTE="Stephen Howard, post: 628219, member: 41"] Spent yesterday afternoon putting both pieces through their paces. Even had a small crowd outside the house at one point. I shoulda run out with a hat. The E is incredibly versatile. Rock, blues, soul, jazz...it slots in nicely. The very best part of it is that I now have a gigging piece that I can actually practice on - the previous pieces were such monsters that I could never really relax with them. Finished up the session by putting the piece in my horn case - where it belongs. Did some experimenting with the J and a lump of Blu-Tack. Bloody typical - spent ages crafting various thinned and tapered baffles without quite hitting the sweet spot - and finally just squished a lump in any old how. Bingo! I'll play with it a bit more but it's already very clear that too much of a baffle just turns it into an E series...which is rather pointless. I'm liking it though - and I've already noticed that I'm beginning to get more out of it in its stock form. [/QUOTE]
