Hmm. I think i might ask someone to do this for me. I am sure I could find someone in the Toronto area to do this. Luckly, I already have a spare mouthpiece with which to play with.

Coincidently, I am ordered a Doug Elliot, DW1 (not the L, I've got an english style tuba).

If the process works for my tester mouthpiece, I think, depending on the throat of the Elliot, I might have it bored out as well.

Ahh. All this trouble. I'm just sick to death of the "limiting" sound of the backbore on my mpc.

Why, might I ask, did you have the bore drilled out of yours?

What changes did you see as a result?
