Re: [Hornlist] Fw: [horn] Conn or Hoyer
I auditioned a Hoyer at Patterson's shop. Very responsive - great valves. Then I played an Elkhart and decided the edge went to the Hoyer. Much more expensive, however (about $6,000)! I bought the Patterson Custom instead with no regrets.

I tink that it isn't the buck, but the horn that you feel the most comfortable with and performs the best for you when playing it. Only YOU can be the judge of that. AmitiƩs...Laurent Yahoo!

RE: [Hornlist] Gig Bags
I just bought a Patterson Custom and a Marcus Bona case to put it in. Awesome case --- very compact, well made and even came with a folding music stand. I can use it either with a shoulder strap or backpack straps. The case is very sturdy and I feel safe with my new horn in it. Highly recommended! Mike Murray -Original Message- From: David B.

I thought they would be easier to haul around the colllege campus rather than the huge cases that they come with. But I want a gig bag that will protect my horn more than anything else. If you want the comfort and convenience of a gig bag but view the protection of the instrument to be your primary concern, I would invite you to consider our line of cases. They are not the most compact bags on the market, but our cases are designed to be durable and absolutely as protective as possible of your valuable investment. They can be quite comfortably carried either over the shoulder or as a backpack. You can find those cases described on our web site at: http://www.thompsonedition.com/cases.htm and you are of course welcome to contact us privately with any questions you may have. David B.
