Nicely done, however from my perspective as a mouthpiece maker, I would experiment with shanks and backbores with each horn first, to get each horn to play its best, for a really fair comparison instead of assuming that using the same mouthpiece on all instruments really provides consistency. It doesn't, if it matches some better than others. I would be happy to be involved if there is a next time.
