Well there seems to be quite a history with CB dealers. You would think by now that the company would do something about it. Im going to call Steve from L&L...
Bono........looks like your really serious about getting a cannonball if your at the club tonight....I have a new CB catalog for you to check out.. ... going ...
okay, I use to play a LOT! After college it was more like 2 hours every other month or so. I missed it a lot, bought a Cannonball and a mouthpiece. (For the...
I saw a few of them at their headquarters Xmas time. Beautiful instruments, interesting idea. Haven't played one yet though. Tevis mentioned that Selmer is...
I've mentioned them before, but they are worth mentioning again. Sam Skelton at Carere Music in Atlanta is a great representative for Cannonball. If you are...
I'll post pics of mine once they're developed and digitized (yeah, I prefer film). Recently, I bought the T1-B [black nickel-plate] with the dark picasso ...

Hi "nperko5" - First off, I'd recommend you spring for a new tuner. There are some really inexpensive ones available now, and using one will help you figure...

I know Keilworth and Couf had the bigger bells long before Cannonball. I think the Cannonball popularity has definitely started the recent trend. I doubt the...
About the cball factory producing other horns ... I have it from a well-known repairman in the industry whom I know and trust that the factory that produces...
I've actually been wanting to discuss this. I spoke to Tevis at the Midwest Band and Orchestra Convention in Chicago. They had an incredible exhibit hall with...
Tried an Antigua Winds alto last year and they SUCK! Not even close to Cannonball. Even if they did come from the same factory, not EVEN CLOSE to same horn...
Hmm, the comment about Coufs made me curious. Years ago (like 1975, when I first started playing bari seriously), I had a Couf Superba II low A bari. It...
Hey Harry, I used a 120/2 Larsen metal mouthpiece on my old Couf and it was a match made in heaven! Since I had the bari chair in a big band (concert jazz) in...

Hi Gang My name is Jim Hayward. I currently live in Sunny South Florida and am the proud owner of a Mad meg CB Alto. Great Horn. From 1979 until 1994 I was...
hello. i am glad to finally after reading for several months to become a member of this group. After years and years of playing in school and in college i am a...
Hi DJ This is best done by a repaiman but it can be adjusted by yourself. A small crochet hook can be used to un hook the springs on the keys you want...
As Jim said it is fairly easy to adjust key tension. The primary item to watch out for is where the spring is actually bent and how ( curve or kink). As you...
