I agree that players like Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, and others of the big band swing era or Dixieland players preferred large bore like a Selmer CT. My repairman was Chuck Hedges, who played one and was one of the best Dixieland players in the country. The problem is all these guys are dead, both the national names and the local players. Dixieland just does not draw anyone anymore. There seem to be a few guys in their 80's who played those around here, but most are in a nursing home. It is a strange situation. Pete Fountain is retired. They sounded great on those instruments, but just as swing music or Dixieland came into being, it also has mostly disappeared just as other forms of music have come and gone. That is the nature of music and instruments. Nothing stays the same.
