That's Roger Lewis at Brasswind. Give him a call to order.

Re: JetTone Helleberg
I just bought four, one each of the four models he has available. Even if none are to my liking, the high school where I teach can use 'em.
BTW, talk him about the Neptune he has in stock.

Following the crowd
, I ordered one each of the two heavy JetTones about half an hour ago. Looking forward to receiving them in about a week.

If that sale is on the Brasswind site, then please provide a link. I have looked without seeing these models at all.

Re: JetTone Helleberg
Oh man, that horn is NICE. For me, it was a close call between the Miraphone 188 and that Neptune. I was totally blown away with how well that thing played. If I thought the majority of my playing would be in large ensembles instead of small, that Neptune would have won.davidgilbreath wrote:I just bought four, one each of the four models he has available.

Re: JetTone Helleberg
Fair enough that they are sold out. Still a bit sad, as exactly GPT’s information told me, that these Helleberg variants might have been attractive to me.
I am in no mouthpiece itch, as I have setled on most of my basses, mouthpiecewise, and I soon even will be able to make more specific choices after ordering the blokepiece #2 (with #1 rim) to my Sidey Classic, MF3H, blokepiece #1.
