I had the honor playing with Eric in High school back in the late 70's and he was a AWESOME trumpet player! He had all kinds of M.F. horns in his collection!
It sounds terrific. By that, I really mean YOU sound terrific! I think you should record all your videos in that room. It really helps the presentation, and does not take away from the authentic sound of the instrument.
My mid 70's YEP-321 is quite poor. Won't play in tune with any mouthpiece and has valve slides that are too long. Low C is so flat it's actually a B. Tone color is boring and inflexible, and dynamic range is limited. I've played Chinese instruments that absolutely blew it out of the water. Yamaha has improved a lot in the last 50 years.
I love that you are playing on the MV3C...still my favorite mouthpiece! I think I've been playing on it for 4-5 years and still love it. I'm waiting for my 11 year old to NEED a pro horn so that I can give him my Gen 1 8335 Xeno and upgrade myself...maybe to this 8330EM
You sound great Trent! I tried a friend’s one of these and I loved it! It’s the only horn I’ve tried that feels like and is as easy blowing as my Kanstul French Besson Meha. The EM is definitely a great horn.
Thank you for the review, i can hear that is superior to the 8340 EM , flash action,. Back to saving pennies, i like the 8335LA ll and his GR mouthpieces , but that lower sound ( like an easy flumpet tone )hooked me up that thank to you Master.
