Awesome, man! Can you post some other videos of you playing some music? I'd really like to hear more. Thanks for posting this.

[HopeBforJC]

My trumpet instructor had me doing that shit. It's so freaking hard! Good job though. I got in two, and that's the best I could do.

[tyler2484]

Nice lol

and to ask about the mouthpiece, is it still like "No bite"? Or does it have some. Anything to compare it too?

Nice playing and nice horn lol

[cccustommusic]

I have been (re)practicing these etudes lately. Good job.

[rwcasian]

dude that is such a sweet horn...i so want to get one. how much was urs?

[TRUMPETDUMPY]

Wow ... Nice man ..

[hineyr]

Not much to say, really. It feels comfortable, it's shallow, and it pretty much does what is expected from Monette equipment.

I have noticed that in loud situations, it cuts through much better than my deeper mouthpiece (Monette B4LD PRANA), but they both feel great and respond instantly.

Great job, I just got a Clark book today and you give a great example of how this piece should be played.

[hineyr]

Thanks. Good luck with it. It is a great tool for fingers and (maybe more importantly) air control and power.

[DeerSlayer575]

How do you like the MFIII prana?? I'm thinking about upgrading i'm on a MFIII regular right now.And BTW Great Playing.

[hineyr]

I like the MFIII PRANA, but I have recently switched to a B4L PRANA. As much as I loved the MFIII, I wasn't getting the dark overtones in my sound that I wanted ...

And thanks ...

[somedude8403]

hey man, i'm coming to you personally, because I'm curious. . I been thinking about getting a PRANA. I see that you have the B4L Prana. How is that one? Is it for classical, jazz, or both? And how much did you pay for it?

[hineyr]

The B4L PRANA is a really comfortable mouthpiece, with (for me) just the right amount of "darkness" to be able to play in more small band jazz situations and still play lead in a big band. So, I use it for both - I don't play very much classical music. The PRANA mouthpiece will cost about $300 these days, I think.

[somedude8403]

Nice. Where did you get yours from?

[hineyr]

I got mine from Monette. When I ordered the horn, they sent me a few pieces to try out. B4L was one of the ones I settled on.

BTW, the Monette people are really great to deal with. Very helpful and supportive.

[somedude8403]

Good, I'm just gon have to get ahold of them and ask for a few mouthpieces to try out. Because i really do want for my my Blessing horn.

[Dazzypig]

OMG, that was amazing

[Branflakes126493]
