Every new horn and mouthpiece that Jerry has out is "the greatest" ever, "nothing like it."
I have two good friends in the NYC area that are playing and liking the Sima a lot.
Jerry called and told them to come try his new horn, as it's better than the Sima. Uh huh..

After playing an hour or so, we swapped horns a couple of times. My perception of the NY Soloist is that it is a terrific "finesse horn". It seems to do a lot of the work for you - as compared to the paint-peeling power of larger bore horns. It's like driving a Cadillac sedan or a Dodge Charger. Both are meaningful experiences…These days I'm more of a section guy than a lead trumpet, and older. I see the NY Soloist as an ideal "pit musician" horn. It's clean, clear, and accurate - in wide interval jumps as well as intonation. Four other trumpet players tried out the New York Soloist last night. They had a range of opinions, 'Where is the thumb hook?' and 'I can't handle that 3rd valve slide ring underneath."
