Has anybody had the chance to compare the new Blackburn piccolo leadpipes (since being acquired by Pickett) next to the old ones? I'm considering getting a silver plated one to replace the (formerly) lacquered one one I've been using for the last 15 years or so.

To my knowledge, it's all still the same - same tooling, same processes, etc.

Thanks...you are correct, but it's not all the same. Tina's not making them anymore...
