Hello Drew:
I don't know Fox at all except for having tried one English horn once. That gave me the impression of dependability. Your choice of the c-series Lorée was perfect: tuning on those old instruments was fantastc!

Everything you mentioned, I have done some time ago and I agree with your observations. That's probably why I like Chiarugi 3 & 5 (almost certainly bigger than Chudnow) and the Kunibert Michel 7.25 shaper (more angular RDG -2). You also posed some really good challenges for investigation... last year would have been great for experiments, this year I have to work more on software development... I'll just say that for me (doing Euro-scrape) tip vs. heart balance is more about response, dynamics and stability than segments of range.

Bigger bore staple has the added benefit for me of relieving dizzy-spells. I suppose that's where the proper choice of an instrument comes into play: mine has been with me for 27 years, huge sentimental value, but maybe another one would need less compensation effort. When the weather and reeds are great, this instrument is fantastic... maybe it just belongs in the USA or the prairies!

Cheers!
