I'm a conformer. I play what Carol plays, although I'm sure I used different mouthpieces.
Posted: Fri Jul 21, 2006 7:06 pm
On 2/24/03, I posted:
Added these mouthpieces:
G&W Alan Baer CC stainless steel
G&W Matanuska (on loan from a friend)
Holton Galaxy (keepsake from high school only)
Conn 36K fibreglass BBb sousaphone with 14K brass bell purchased primarily for use at Cubs games (promised but never hired by the Dixieland bandleader; just as well because the 2006 Cubs games are worse than dismal)
Holton BBb Raincatcher with ornate engraving of "The Chief" loaned by "the Maestro" for parades in lieu of a 20K
My intense search for a baßtuba has been temporarily halted by a personal/family matter
Update:Nirschl 4/4 CC with Laskey 30H and 30C
Conn 20K loaned by "the Maestro" for the gigs [parades] that he books
Steinway Model D 9-foot Concert Grand in my store
Fatar Pro 900 88-note Controller with Ensoniq sound module when portability is a must

OK... you asked for it!
Conn 21J with upright bell, Meinl 25 BBb 4 rotor, Marzan BBb 4 piston (B & M model)**, an old German rotary flugelhorn, Couesnon Eb, Mirafone BBb 5V**, Mirafone BBb 4 rotor bell-front, Conn Eb stencil, a Conn/Olds Eb 'frankenhelicon', Carl Wunderlich BBb 4 rotor (B & S stencil), King 4 piston Eb bell-front**, Couesnon BBb 3 piston, Conn 36K sousa**, and a Conn 14K (with added 4th piston) 'frankenhelicon'**. I keep the bagpipes around to irritate the neighborhood dogs. The gadget in the corner is commonly referred to as a 'stump fiddle'. I don't have a clue what make the trombone on the wall is.
**(currently NOT for sale.... but tempt me!)

CC -- Conn 56J Satin Silver
Eb -- Yamaha YEB-381 5V (Stofer customized 5th valve -- long whole step)

Taylor GAMC limited ed. acoustic guitar
Fender American Deluxe Strat electric guitar
Carvin AE-185 electric/acoustic guitar
Yamaha FG-160 acoustic guitar
[oh yeah ... mpcs: way too many. Probably need to post a FS list... Most often use Conn Helleberg, Bach 7 Megatone, Parke-Offenloch, Bach 12, Schilke Helleberg (small one) ]

Cheers,

PT6 + MF3
Schecter Stiletto Studio 5 string bass on Peavy Mark III + EV 1x15
Those are what I use on a regular basis. I also have a Buescher True Tone alto sax, Johnson strat style electric guitar, and a Made in Vietnam acoustic, all which I've retired and tinker with once in a while.
