DW 6BS alternative
Posted: Wed May 31, 2023 12:20 pm
Hello!
Im new here.Playing lead bone in a professional big band.Been playing King 3B,s for the last 23 years, great horns, last 12 years playing new made 3B SGX from 2012 with a DW 6 BS mouthpiece.
Mont ago Ive got a brand new King 2BL Jiggs model, plays great ( but manufacturing of the trombone catastrophic- lacquer been falling off the slide after one moth of use, slide stiff, cant get it working like it should etc.).
The DW 6BS seems not to be working on this trombone so well, maybe too big, just doesnt feel right.
Any sugestions or experiences for alternative mpc for big band lead playing, with similar rim like DW 6BS??
Never been a mpcs freak, 6BS worked fine on 3B, but it looks like not appropriate for 2BL.
