I have owned the 861 (custom Geyer) and I sold it a year and a half after I
purchased a Lewis (it was a really nice horn and I was loath to part with
it, but what was the point of owning two horns of that caliber?). I also
own an 862 (custom Kruspe) that I am currently using as my main axe. I
I played a 868D in college and for a few years after. Great horn, I wish I
would of never sold it. I've played most all the custom doubles that yamaha
offered 862, 863, 867, and 868, they are all quality instruments. I wouldn't
hesitate to recommend one as a main axe to anyone.

I also played on an 862 for about 7 or 8 years - a very good horn.
When I came across it (on consignment), had been playing an N-series

the one knock I had on it was it felt/sounded rather 'metallic' -

My dear horn friends, I'm looking for a couple hard to find mouthpieces. I
would be very grateful if anyone can please tell me where I can get these,
new or used.
(1) Constellation 3B-N, 3B-W
(2) Giardinelli 310 mouthpiece. (Giardinelli doesn't make this one
anymore.)

I have a Conn 3B-N that I currently use. I, too, have looked for a 3B-W,
but have been told there is no W version. There is, however, a 7B-W
mouthpiece, but it has a totally different cup configuration (shallower,
I believe).

I don't know what these are called I can't find them anywhere I've looked.
I'm trying to find a source to buy the cool little gadgets I saw on Gail
William's horn Saturday. I didn't get a chance to ask her about them.
They're little metal bands, about 7 to 9 mm wide (less than 1/4 inch).
I do the same thing with braces rubber bands.

Alexander makes these little gadgets. You can get them online at Ken Pope's

Just look under the accessories section.
I'm sure you can also get them at other sites (i.e. Osmun, etc.)

That's one of the reasons to grease the slides. If you apply the right
amount you'll be able to see where you had them set.
