 Re: Slowly becoming flatter and flatter while playing

Yes, I tried #3 1/2, but I found it was much the same as my #4's and after discussion with my teacher I went one step further down to #3. (Actually, my #4 all had to be modified extensively before they were useful, usually making them so much lighter/softer they nearly became #3 1/2).

This was of course not a sudden step but one made over the last 3 months or so, in which I used 4's, 3 1/2's and 3's together, finally settling for 3. My teacher said my tone is brighter and has more 'core' now, whereas before it was very dark and sometimes lacked sufficient 'core' (I don't really know the proper english word for what my teacher called 'core' of the tone).
