I had the chance to play the CC prototype briefly a few months ago. It was smallish, had some tuning problems, and also sounded a little thin. The metal DID seem thicker than the BBb dentophones. However, since this WAS a prototype sent to my teacher for evaluation, I'll reserve final judgement until the horn is "finalized." If it stays the same size, it will be in the neighborhood of a 185 Miraphone, but not as big sounding. After all of the bugs are worked out, it might be a good choice for first-time CC buyers on a budget. Of course, they may scrap the whole design & start over on a more appealing size and quality as far as I know. We'll see how well the St. Pete factory takes suggestions.
