Pearl 795... another question

Post by beelady »

Curious. Or is the Forza headjoint the only option?

Also, does the 10k lip plate really make a difference than having the sterling silver lip plate?

Thanks in advance!

Just saw Joe's post regarding headjoints. Thanks Joe.

I can get the 795 RBE (not the Coda model) at a lower price. Basically the same instrument, except the lip plate is not 10k plated, and it says they are made in Japan, Is this true?

795's are currently made in Taiwan...not Japan. Only the Coda models come with the 10K lip plate. There are many other model options without the 10K lip plate...Taking the gold out does save on the $$$
