Vintage Meyer Alto

This is a beautiful MPC from Evghenii Botnar. Although it doesn't say NewYork on the body, everything about this is a NewYork Meyer. It plays very well with a med hard, Vandoren Blue Box reed. For me, this is one of the best there is. Middle D speaks with no problem and the sound is very rich in partials. It plays a little different from typical Meyers. To me, this is nothing like the other kind of Meyer. You don't have to work so hard on this piece. Just like it is
tough to beat a Mark VI, it is tough to beat a NY Meyer. It was a lot of fun getting this one to play.

If you are wondering if it is worth $400 + , From my experience refacing this NY Meyer, it might be worth spending the money. It has a very rich partial content, and feels very comfortable to play.

Ponzol 7 Reface

This job was for Gary Pedersen. The piece had a very concave table. By the time the table was flat it was more of a 6 than a 7. The chamber was modified extensively by removing material. The facing was opened back to a 7. Now it is much brighter and free blowing.
