Hey Rick, don't say I didn't tell ya so! I found the Wick 1 to be the best for me on the YM followed by the Wick 2. But from F up, it really tested my originality on fingering alternatives.

Changing to a large-shank receiver would mean doing a hacksaw job on the leadpipe, since the receiver IS the leadpipe--it would be a shame to butcher original equipment. I wondered about simply buying a replacement "universal" leadpipe from Allied or Strege-Wuttke (about $20) and expreimenting with it. You'll have to bend it, of course, but that's not hard if you've got some Cerrobend kicking around. Put a large-shank receiver on it and start blowing.

Whatcha think?
