96% the player and 4% equipment but having the right tools makes playing easier. I play on a Monette B2 and B3 and I prefer those two over pretty much everything. I used to play on Terry Warburton's mouthpieces 11 and 12 backbore with 2D and 3MC tops. When I can test these out, I will definitely do so.
so has Adam stopped working with Monette now? I am 100% convinced Lotus is just a way for Monette to get away from their negative stigma within the industry. Lots of people won't touch anything with the name "Monette" attached (which is a shame because I believe its revolutionary.) However, Adam has to have a producer that can expertly craft these mouthpieces, not just some willy-nilly shop with a lathe....so I saw it's gotta either be the new Blackburn company or the Monette still attached and renamed to get better sales.
Adam is no longer working with Monette. LOTUS and Monette has nothing to do with each other, there is no rebranding or even much of a similarity of how the trumpets and mouthpieces play. The gear that we make have been developed from scratched over countless hours of research and development, and is nothing like the products that Monette are offering. Dave is still owning Monette, and we own LOTUS. /Henrik Grahn, CEO LOTUS Trumpets
My goodness, you guys know soooo much about trumpets and playing trumpet. Every time I watch this, I learn something new. 👏
featuring the most expensive table in the world
Eventually Lotus trumpets will get in the hands of some folks with talent!! 😂. My Lord every trumpet player that opts for a Lotus horn is a beast!!

I think Adam could do any piece of pipe he put his mouth on, to sound good
Marcus Printup horn playing is okay! But wanted to hear more Adam Rapa playing then his playing.
A mouthpiece is always a compromise.
