    How about a V-16 2 1/2? Or a La Voz.

    I've been using Vandoren ZZ 2.5s on my metal Beechler #7 . . . I've also had luck with Rico Jazz Selects (filed) . . . Eric Marienthal is using blue box Vandoren 2.5s on his Beechler #7 . . . I know a lot of guys who like Vandoren Javas on their Beechlers . . .

    I don't knowwhat lig setup you have , but if it's the bullet shape chamber like I think. Try a Rovner soprano lite lig with a Java Jazz / 2/ or 2.5 I think you will be amazed at the range and volume. Stevo

        I know it sounds a little weird , the smaller radius of the mp allows the soprano lig to fit [ Rovner] nicely around the chamber. Stevo

          You were talking about a bullet shaped chamber of a beechler, but mines pretty ordinary, I have the bellite, also I have a rovner lig that came with a guardala I got, would that work well? thanks

          It should , try that setup , see how it fits , if it works you should tell when you play some riffs. Stevo
