I am making the switch from BBb to CC. I was wondering if it is normal to have some loss of tone quality at first. I had a decent tone on the BBb, and it was fairly a fat sound that i was happy with. Now that I am playing the CC, it seems a bit "airy" and weak. Could this be solved with a different mouthpiece? The shank on my CC is larger than the BBb i was playing. I am playing on a Mirafone TU31. ANY suggestions would be much help. I am getting ready for college auditions.
Thanks for any help!
