You already own a JK m.p., so why not simply order one that has the small enough dimensions to work as an F/Eb m.p.? - smaller diameter, shallow depth - something like that, for example?

I just recently picked up the Miraphone TU29 "Winston Morris" F/Eb m.p. from Lowbrass Werks. Tony has the complete line of Miraphone m.p.'s, and they make at least three or four different F/Eb m.p.'s. The TU29 is fairly shallow with a small bore throat. As a result, it is a bit *bright*, but I wanted something that would provide more security up high along with good intonation, over something with a *dark* sound. I'm sticking this into a B&H Eb, so I'm using it for when I want it to behave like a smaller F tuba.
