Thanks guys for the shipping container tips.
Thanks to all for your responses! hyperbolica - this is very helpful.
For those of you who ship large instruments, where can I get cartons large enough for the trombones?
JP
In that I am a euph player and know little about trombones, and know that some of you double on trombone, I'm reaching out to you for your input.
I am selling two trombones for a friend who just...
Thanks all! It's back in the case.

I have a Yamaha 642S (silver), and I have never really had a problem with it tarnishing. Due to the inability to take it anywhere lately to play, I have been leaving it outside its case for...
Beautifully played! I love your tone; so much darker than anything I can produce on my horn.
JP
I agree that we should strive for a characteristic euphonium sound, but I think that it is better to be able to hit the high notes and compromise a little on sound than to have a traditional sound...
Hello Mike (Taylor),
PM sent.

Does anyone have any experience with the Alliance DC4 mpc on euphonium? How does it compare to the DC3? Does it play bigger than the Bach 5G? Thanks as always!
JP
Welcome to the forum! Whereabouts on the east coast are you located?
JP
Thank you all for your responses. And thanks to Doug Ruby, I now have one in my possession to test.
I have some interest in this horn. I inquired for more pics, and a couple were sent, but not enough to really be able to tell the condition. The auction ended yesterday; it didn't sell, and has been...
To all Wick euphonium "AL" series mouthpiece users:
A reputable Wick representative has said that the "The 4AL was highly suggested for Euphonium prior to specifically made Euphonium mpcs being...
How does a U.S. based eBay seller easily determine shipping costs to other countries? Or what impact on shipping costs does using the Global Shipping Program have?

I also transport my horn on the floor behind the driver's seat, where it is nicely captured between the seats. But I haul it in its original case. I have had bad experiences with gig bags and won't...
Mike,
Could you please elaborate on why you feel this way? Have you played the XR, and if so, how would you describe the sound? Thanks.

I also am not receiving emails even though I have subscribed to the various threads.

Thanks John. I had an SM4 once. Probably should have kept it.

Doug and Dave,
Thanks - good advice. That is what I shall do! I'm scheduled to hook up with her in early January.
JP
Thanks Mike. I'm primarily playing on a Bach 5G now, but also have the Conn CKB 5G, Yamaha 53SH, and SM4X.
JP
Thanks John. I have tried a few of the ones you suggested. I wish there was a convenient way to try a number of mps without being committed to buying any of them. I like the idea that someone else...
I recently made an inquiry to Wick about a mouthpiece recommendation and received a response from Denis Wick himself! He said: "the most important aspect of mouthpiece choice is that it must ...
Thanks Franz. I'll give the K&Gs a look. Where can they be purchased in the US?
JP
I play a Yamaha 642S. I actually have an SM4X. Maybe I haven't given it enough of a chance, but when I used it in the past I found that my endurance suffered compared to the 5G. In addition to the...
Thanks Rick!
