Keith,
I've tried both thin(B&S--transparent) and thick(selmer)one. I think the thin one is a bit fine for tight embrochure and offer easier control and adaptation. The thick one is more comfort in terms to dim down the vibration for your front teeth.

My experience is they both bear similar wearing rate and the Selmer thick patch has a rapid downtrend once a bitten hollow is formed---and I've to trim it and shift the good portion to the point for my teeth then.

Hi friends,

I said that I am a crazy and I am.

I bought a Jupiter slide trumpet from Tom Lee and started trying to play trumpet this month. I also bought from Tom Lee a Yamaha silent brass which you stick on the bell of the trumpet to COMPLETELY silence/mute the trumpet so that you only hear the sound in your headphone. Nobody else hear it or get disturbed. It is so incredible. I wish they have something like that for saxes. Are you listening, Yamaha? Can you hear me?.........cc Yamaha Corp.

I can now play easily one and a half octave. On some days I can play up to two octaves. But just major scales and long notes, not yet tunes. Not yet proficient.

The trumpet sound is so different.....it is more dramatic, pompous, and not so jazzy or sleazy as the saxes.
