Hey there Im sure this has been discussed... but what exactly does a Chedeville style mpc do as far as tone and intonation are concerned. I am currently playing on a Lomax A-3 handmade mpc on my E&S K series, would the E&s mpc be better suited for this horn. thanx alot

I would try both on a chromatic tuner and plot the pitches out.
The tuner does not know which mpc that you have in your mouth, and it will not lie.

The Lomax is a nice mpc. I have the Lomax aG1 (which probably has a more closed tip and longer facing than the one you have). I found that it tunes up not far off from the 440 Vandoren series.
