Hello
I dont play piccolo trumpet often but find a bach 7C works better (intonation, sound) vs a 7D , does some piccolo players here are in the same case?
Thanks! |

Yes.
In general I have found that more open blowing mouthpieces speak more easily in a piccolo trumpet than shallower ones.
I am back on the Bach 6 for piccolo trumpet after a while on Monette A1-5P.
Ideally I should be on something smaller, but I am not doing enough piccolo to make the effort to optimise things.
