Frequently Asked Questions

It's generally good, but plastic construction means slight variations are more noticeable, particularly in the extreme registers. Requires a bit more focused embouchure control for perfect tuning.
While durable, fiberglass can crack under significant stress or extreme temperature changes. Standard care and avoiding excessive force will keep it in good shape.
Technically yes, but the smaller leadpipe opening is designed for the included plastic mouthpiece; using a larger metal mouthpiece may restrict airflow and negatively affect tone.
