Lori,
I've actually been asked to play the Eb (whenever needed) in 2 bands this
year, and have no experience whatsoever with it, hopefully it won't be too
hard to pick up! I'm looking at probably buying one, as the ones out for
hire in Australia are all plastic and really bad.
I play an R-13 Bb, and so I was looking towards getting an Eb version of
that, unless you can recommend a better one. And yes, I'll be getting a
better mouthpiece soon after when I find the time to!
And thanks for the reccomendations, they should help me a lot.
Thanks,
Erin
