Donald: at various times I've performed on Buffets, 1010s, Eaton Internationals, and Howarth S2s. I found the Howarth most 1010-like: not a great deal of resistance, but able to produce a sound that combines purity and power. The Eatons I found better suited to chamber playing than orchestral: I found it hard to keep the sound warm at high volumes. But a proper comparison with 1010s is hard because you can't use the same mouthpiece. I think the Howarths are great, and I'd encourage anyone who gets a chance to get hold of one. Their main drawback is that the plating quality wasn't as it should have been, and there is often above-average wear.
