Yeah, and the St. Pete seems similar to the rotary HB as far as "scope", and we know how fair an idea of suitability in a hall or BQ gig those two examples will give you.
Lurker, take your comments from those who have played the two, not from someone who is comparing bell size and stature, or pictures from the internet.
If I told you the sound on these horns are as big as HBs or MWs, with only a .687 bore, would you believe me?
Give one a test run and see for yourself. This is MUCH MORE HORN than the Getzen and just as much horn as the previous examples, despite the similarities of the pictures on some website.
