[TPIN] Bore sizes......

[Byron Jones]

It really seems like (and I mean "seems like", since I can't prove it,) the larger the bore, the more air I can push through the horn. Even at micro measurements. I know engineering has something to do with it, too, but bore size seems to allow more air to be allowed through the pipe, and it does make a difference. I just can't play the ml bore horns for more than a tune or two, then I'm groping for the larger horn so I can keep the air flowing. I know it's not just me.....
