@sfalexi "I can't use them cause I tend to play low to begin with, and my band plays sharp. But my colleague plays high (uses a 66 or even 67 mm barrel) and it works fantastically for him."

How interesting! At the show I played yesterday, after the horn naturally warmed up, I had to pull the longer (66.5mm) barrel a millimeter to stay in tune with the piano.

Likewise. Hence my original post here. Walter's mouthpieces are known among many professionals, but it certainly won't hurt if a few more will discover his wonderful work for themselves.

@cxgreen48 "So who wants to explain what dark chocolate and coffee sound like?" I believe this stands for *dark* or *coating* (the ear with chocolate). This kind of description though makes me also think of the late Steve Jobs who wasn't describing Apple's new products other than by the adjective "magical." It's magic, period.

And you know, with the actual pleasing result and trust in the manufacturer's reputation, I can relax a bit and buy into that kind of fairytale rhetoric.
