[Trombone-l] Different trombones and different mpces...

[David W. Buckley]

As an aging amateur, I find keeping the same rim on my face helps. I use a
Doug Elliot 103 rim for everything - with Conn 8 shank and G cup for my 88h
for orchestra,  change to an F cup for brass band; for my Bach 36 I use the
same rim, still use an 8 shank with the F cup; For my Minick alto after much
mouthjpiece testing, I ended up with the 103 rim, a C cup and a C shank.
Seemed odd to me whem Doug recommended it but it seems to work - at leats my
orchestra conductor is happy.
