Dear Sandy,

I own 2 cocobolo Backun barrels for my A, 1 each for my C and Eb, 2 plus =
a
grenadilla for my Bb. I also have cocobolo bells for all these horns =
(plus
a granadilla for the Bb) and one for my Bass. In most people's opinions =
the
bells make even more difference than the barrels, affecting the tone and
evenness throughout the entire horn, right up to the altissimo.=20

Every one of Morrie's bells and barrels is different because of the
character of each piece of wood. He also uses Bois de Rose, Snakewood =
and
Tulipwood. It is worth trying out MANY of them. If you are like most
players you will find one or more that is like MAGIC for you.

They are unconditionally guaranteed.

We are blessed that Morrie is right here in Vancouver.

Does anyone use one of the Backun cocobolo barrels? I
love the sound and I'm looking into purchasing one.
