C4 in stainless or w/ flatter rim?

Post by TheHatTuba »

Does anyone make a C4 in stainless (small throat and all, already have a Solo 1) OR a C4 with a flatter rim (Yami Bobo Solo(?), DE's(?))?

Trying a few different mouthpieces with a 2250TL, but I like my beater C4 the best thus far, minus the split shank and annoying gouges in rim :shock:

I'm guessing you didn't like the blokepiece solo in this? I didn't on the 2260 until I plugged in my EURO shank solo. Made a huge difference and I loved that horn after that. Give that a try.

- Send them a mouthpiece with the rim that you like (or describe it...They may well be familiar with that rim.)
- Pay the extra charge for a custom rim.

bloke "not stainless, but flatter rim"
+1. Vladimir @ Dillon Music or Jim @ Kanstul can do that for you.
