I'm not sure the throat tone intonation is a problem with the kind of mouthpiece they were modeled with. I don't find them flat - if anything they tend toward sharpness, depending on which of several mouthpieces I'm using and what barrel I'm using with it.

As far as "more free-blowing and darker in tone" are concerned, depending on exactly what you mean by "darker" you'd be risking defeating two of the features the original 10G was meant to provide - a cleaner, more focused tone and a little more resistance to blow against **than the R13s straight off the boat from the factory** provided. I'm not sure that anyone who is still devoted to the concept of the original 10G would be attracted to free-er blowing and darker (in the sense it's normally used these days).
