Bruce Harris trying new LOTUS gear at ITG (also TurboWood!)

Ladies and gentlemen, the one and only Bruce Harris! 🔥🎺
Bruce flew in especially to meet up with us at ITG 2023. When Bruce stepped into the LOTUS room and played the very first notes, his presence and integral sense of musicality immediately brightened up the room!
In this video you’ll hear him playtesting the latest LOTUS gear. Enjoy!

All sound great

[@TanBleach46290]

I come back to this video wayyy too often, but the lick at 5:53 is just straight fire!

[@JM-td2qb]

I would never have expected that from wood

[@thetrumpetsource1270]

Killin it. Can hear the tonal changes from one setup to another.

[@d-lin-z3825]

Awesome!!!!🎺🔥

[@user-ei2qn9kv1m]

3L bronze…🎺🎶😳
I don't know but it's good

[@possiblyrupert2844]

Like Bruce said I actually cant believe your making a wooden mouthpiece and not only that it sounds amazing

[@stupoo]

XL2 in wood is a beautiful sound.

[@DELUXEGM]

I hope Phil Parker have those turbowood mouthpiece to let me try I wanted to buy one lol

[@gethoman]

oh Dizzy Guillespie its alive, awsome how young he looks hhhh

[@Kontrabass66]

???

[@gethoman]

@@Kontrabass66 was a joke because in my opinion he looks like Dizzy when he was young

[@stupoo]

I wish this video was an hour long.

[@Trollet532]

solo model with 3l mouthpice, holy smookes

[@stupoo]

What’s the tune he’s playing when you say how creamy it is?

[@iactuallylikejazz_2047]

Are the XL3 shallower than the XL2? Is that a new cup design?

[@chaddowney5845]

Probably a more aggressive throat/backbore like 2 variants. Maybe more aggressive, more pop? Who knows, haha.

[@seth094978]

​@@chaddowney5845 I was thinking less aggressive than the 1 backbore, actually. They'll probably tell us soon anyhow.

[@jonathansullivan1299]

Where was this trial? I would like to meet you guys and try out your mouthpieces.

[@hisnameisdean]

xl3???

[@seth094978]

Yeah what's that? Seems like maybe it's the opposite of the 2 backbore? Also XXL?

[@UbuntuBanksie]

oh hell nah. Put that man on an 11XS and lets hear him

[@Kontrabass66]

I have played wooden mps thirty years ago, Maurie Andre, too, so what? But very nice sounding stuff!!

[@BillSmith-rx9rm]

Play the same thing on a King Cleveland. I bet it sounds virtually the same. Especially to an untrained ear.

3XL3 in wood 🫠Bruce is a beautiful player
