        Hi James, it sounds very good if you are looking for a bright sound. Which size are you going to get?
        My TW H20 is surprising just how soft it can play. It sometimes sounds like a flute and I use it for church on my YAS26 which I really love.

        I was tempted to get the HR* for the dark tone, but couldn’t find one available and ended up buying three other discounted MPs to play around with, including a TW metal Fire which is sooo loud I think one has to play it with hearing protection. I’ll save that one for communication with Mars.

          This is what I’m chasing.

          JJ HR* Dark Alto MP

          This one doesn’t sound like tracing paper on a comb – lol

          Doesn’t the HR* make your toes curl?

              Hi Pete, the problem for us South Africans is getting hold of one which doesn’t cost the Earth.

              I just love the dark tone of this MP. My wife says that it just sounds like a proper sax 🙂

              Another cool sound

              Cheers

                  Jeff i use a Optimum ligature with it sounds pretty good or a Rovner Dark, which is ok. Should sound nice on a Yamaha!

                    hi jeff
                    any mouthpiece i would buy, would be based on the tip size, similar in size to my alto king mouthpiece.

                      Hi James, so a 7 gap then? Please post some MP3 comparison tests.
                      1,98mm is my favourite on the Addario MP, but it may be a while before I can more back there on the YAS62.
                      I’ve just found a JJ DC6 so it’s going to get interesting.
                      Cheers Jeff

                        Hi Jeff,
                        i haven’t ordered the mouthpiece as they are out of stock. Gives me time to change my mind.
