Mouthpieces PPT Tenor8* Mouthpiece arrived

[Saxade]

My PPT Tenor 8* MP arrived today
I have just given it it first try out remembering it is replacing a 7* ...
First impressions are great... the notes in the low register are coming out easier ( In fact I am noticing the higher the * No. The better the low register. On the 5* I could not blow a low D clearly)
I have to thank Pete for applying the discounted price... very generous of him ... as I ordered it prior to the discount being available :welldone
Now back to do some more blowing....

Just make sure that you don't lose it on the beach...............;} What is this 5* that you mention? Is it a typo, or was it a special order?

I received my PPT 7* a few days ago and I can't make my mind up about it - I've been used to darker or brighter mouthpieces and don't know whether this is too inbetween, neither one thing nor t'other. It is more resistant than my normal mouthpiece - a Phil-Tone Custom .112.

Anyway happy blowing!
Tom

Enjoy it Adrian! I'm having a ball at the moment with my 8*. Oh, and you need to change your signature! ;}

I am sorry about the cryptic post... Originally I had a Otto Link 5 (since sold) replaced with a Jody Jazz 6* (better but not right) then a Theo Wanne 7* (much better intonation)... Now (as of today) my PTT 8*... which I think, at this stage is going to be better still... I will let you know.. better still maybe a sound track.. ;}

Yes please Adrian,
I have to say that I thought all of the notes on your tracks sounded good to me. So I'm looking forward to hearing the PPT.

Well... I know I am pushing this but here goes the MKIv with the PPT Mouthpiece.... :shocked: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf7xkUvBSbE
Since I have being playing Alto I had a little trouble controlling the Tenor Embouche... no excuse..

Well if today was your first session with the PPT, it sounds great!
As is to be expected for a while, there are one or two intonation probs. but I think, when you adapt to it, it will be all that anyone could ask for.
I liked it :welldone:welldone:welldone

Er, I'm not biased of course.

That sounds just great Saxade, sounds like you will soon have the MkV1 singing a sweet as bird.

Cheers
