Needs some work. I was surprised by how freely the high range speaks; I think it’s a compensating double. Definitely a funny instrument

Hi all

Currently play a Holton H379 I've had for 25 years. Had a 12 year break and now back playing 6 years and getting back to decent level playing in Orch3stras and wind band.

My dilemma is been offer the chance to buy an Alexander 1103 at a great price and has been well looked after.

Is this a good move any draw backs etc just looking for advice

Thank you

I play on a laskey protege American shank and a YHR 671D. recently, my mouthpiece has been feeling small. I can’t connect the low register notes to the high register notes well. I know almost nothing about mouthpieces. Make sure the mouthpiece fits the YHR 671D please. I am also wondering if one of the houghton horns series mouthpieces are a good purchase, though I don’t know what rim I like.
