New Deck 3 . . . Woo-Hoo!

Just received my new Deck 3 from Dave Houser . . . can't wait to get it into my Willson 3050 and see the difference!

I really enjoy mine. It's a great option to have in the quiver. It's not what I use day in and day out (that's the blokepiece symphony) but I keep it close by for certain pieces of music.

Looking forward to get my two. I expect them to help add some volume when needed,
but I suspect them to challenging to my breathing technique

I use a slightly modified symphony daily as well

Tried mine out ever-so-briefly on my Cerveny 653 last night . . . seemed to help center the sound a bit, project a bit more and smooth out slurs. Not the tuba I had in mind when I ordered it, but I will try it on my Willson later today. Didn't notice a perceptable challenge to my air yet.

***Edit: Just plugged into my Willson 3050. A/B'd the Deck 3 against my Loud LM-3. For me, and to my wife (who was listening), the Deck 3 is a bit broader, less focused, slightly easier in slurring and low range. The LM-3 puts a bit more clarity and "hammer" in the sound.
