I have not had this experience with the Greenline vs. wood. I had many occasions in the US Army Band program to make direct comparisons between R13 wood and Geenline in practice, rehearsal and performance. There is a slight difference up close (in our own bubble) where one might perceive a bit more upper partial strength (as when you try a ringless barrel over your ringed barrel) but NOT a difference in what projects.

Personally I prefer the constancy of pitch over time (tone holes and bore NOT going out of round) that the Greenline material offers to the vagaries of wood.

Hmmmmm............

so maybe there IS a difference between wood and Greenline
