Great job on frosty Johnny! I see in the description u used a Durga. You sampling one out or onto a new piece? How’s it compare to the mb fat boy? I have a couple Theo mp myself but love the fat boy!
Just curious!
Also. I learned from you! I was tasked with a job of making my mom a dvd of her top 10 Christmas songs! Pretty happy with the turnout and can hear your influence throughout the entire disc.
Thank you!!!!!
Happy holidays!!!

hey Jake, right on thanks!
I got the Durga 2-3 years ago cause heard a lot of good things. ya I like it. it hasn’t replaced my Guardalas but I did some live shows a couple weeks ago and did something to my MBI and just haven’t had the time to fix it yet. I slapped the durga on and it’s been on ever since. with the right reed it’s pretty good (Copper Fiberreed).
It’s not a mp that I would use exlusively fulltime but it’s one of the best I’ve tried.

After reading about the Durga and Jakes’ comments I went back to my fatboy. Sounded good

Carbon Onyx I mean to say

In my search for a fatter sound I switched to my Guardala MBI mouthpiece using a MS carbon fiber reed. keeping my fatboy on stand by.

Wow. That much of a difference between the mb1 and fat boy? Where in the world did you find that mp? I switch up every now and then but find myself right back on the fat boy. That’s one’s def my go to. Also suppose I’m the most used to it. Plays easy for me. Altissimo comes right out and it’s the best for my intonation. Lol.
