Hey to all,
@ Sunnydaze,
Hey Eh yeah that is indeed that question, I have made an agreement with a shop to go there next week to test a couple of vandoren MP's that (according to Clark, have a similar face. I have tried the Selmer HS** in that past, but it felt like there was a leak, sounded like there was an airjet been blown into the instrument which wasn't making any notes, just the air turbulence, this besides the normal sound which was also present. I haven't tested the higher notes specifically though. I will do that tonight. Just need to relax a bit, just came back from a very busy weekend.
@Ed
Thank you for your suggestions, I do believe I did those already though, nevertheless i will try it again, focussing on it specifically.
About Clark, I have been communicating wih him extensively when buying the Debut and as you said I trust Clark's thoughts and opinion! The sincerity and time he put in that, what must be s small sell for him, was really mind blowing to me.
Because of that I completely trust his advice, period! You stating his quote "I will not sell anything that I don't believe in", sounds very much like hime, so I am absolutely not surprised.
He adviced me the specific MP's to test to get a proper idea on what opening I should use and that is exactly what I am going to do. It's going to be a long travel but the experience will be so worth it.
@JTJC
Have you contacted Clark directly on this? As far as I know him, it feels to me he would really not be happy reading this and he would be as helpfull as he could be trying to solve the issue, maybe even still now? I would really try to contact him if you haven't done so yet.
Kind greats
