What does everyone feel the best euphonium is out there right now? Mouthpiece? Combination? I currently play on a Willson 2900 with the BB1 Bowman mouthpiece. I like it when I'm playing in the middle "sweet" register of the horn at about a good forte, but if I have to go past that, it feels like the air "backs up" on me a little. I played on a Prestige not too long ago with the SM3 mouthpiece, and it was great as far as that aspect went. I've also heard the new Yamaha Custom euphoniums are great as well as the Hirsbrunner's. What does everyone think?
