Jeeeeeeeeeeeez! Thank you taking the time to make this! So much content and brilliantly laid out!
-
Hands-down the best presentation of Parke products out there! I consider myself a pretty big nerd, and I learned a lot. Way to go Jon, keep it up!

Hey Jon, I really miss your regular videos! There's lots of trumpet nurds out there looking for all kinds of information! I must say I am a trumpet nurd of the highest order. Your videos are greatly appreciated!!!🎺🎶🎵👌👍
-
Well done! Cant wait to see more of your videos!
-
Your channel has really great content. Thank you ! Now, I know I will never be able to choice between all these possibilities :-D
-
Awesome video Jon, do you know if Parke offers acrylic rims? I have an allergy to both silver and gold and prefer the feel and grip of synthetic rims.
-
I'm listening to this guy from now on..
-
Jon, you need to make a PDF of your nerd certificate and post it in your listings! I will hang it in my studio!

Hi Jon, I recently discovered your channel and am loving the nerd mouthpiece stuff! Great job, keep it up! I'm curious, what has been your experience with Parke 3 piece sets versus 1 piece models? About 20 years ago I bought some Parke parts from a friend and I ended up using them for some years, basically a 275-24 cup with 2 different 655 rims, one a Merkelo AMD one an Orchestral. After some trying I convinced them to make me some similar one piece models with a 655 rim. I bought 3, a 275, 278, and 280 cups. Unfortunately the rims were so different from my older screw rims that I didn't like them at all and ended up selling them. I think they were annealed, this was maybe 12 years ago or so.

Great video Jon! Question for you: I’m ordering a 640-275-24 Orchestral, but I’m worried about the bite being too sharp. What are your experiences with the R6 rom. I know it has a softer bite then the standard rim, but how much softer? Is it roughly equivalent to a 1C, or a 1.5C Bach, or maybe a Pickett or Schilke Symphony rim? Any help you could give would be amazing! Where I’m from, we can’t try Parke’s easily.

Hey Jon, I’ll be in Chicago for a few weeks and Id love to stop by Parke to try out some mouthpieces. Do I just message them on one of their social media’s to set up an appointment or is there another way I should go about it? Thanks!

Omg...I am such a mouthpiece nerd ❤️
-
What are the advantages and physical qualities of an “orchestral” style rim?
-
Checked the website...doesn't look like they are selling online now
-
What do you think of the X piece ?
-
Is this system the same for their trombone mouthpieces?
-
Great, but with Sound exampels even better 👍🤗
-
I want to avail a mouthpiece award if any hahaha
-
Must be expensive
