Just received my first custom Crossover in A.
Extremely pleased with it, plays so well and the bends come so easily.
I'm stil a bit of a novice so I can't comment on overblows.
This is the way to go for me, it didn't cost me much more than my ootb Manji but plays so much better.
I'll be collecting a full set of these as funds allow.
If anyone in the UK is looking for a home grown customiser then I can thoroughly recommend Heny, a real nice guy to deal with (I have no affiliation with him).

I wonder what he did to the Crossover.
They are pretty much spot on out of the box.
They look good, play well... so I am curious to know what he's done.

Could you post some photos?

@peduarte:

I have some of Henry Slim's harps. Marine Bands. If you're at LH tonight or at Adam's clinic tomorrow, remind me.

And...

Here's a recent effort at playing one of them!

Sounding good Captain!

I must try one of these MB's. Does anyone know if they overblow ok? I'm not a Jazz overblower but I do use 4,5&6 OB's and OD on 7.
