Got this in JJ's newsletter today:
• DV Baritone is coming
Jason Marshall is pictured below on the first day that he played the DV Baritone prototype. He had been enthusiastically playing the ESP Baritone up to that point, but the minute he played the DV, it was the last time he played the ESP. He insisted on playing the DV, that night with The Roy Hargrove Quintet. I had a feeling that Jason was going to fall in love with the DV, so I had made an extra one in his tip opening, #10, (.140). It was an amazing night and when Roy featured Jason on a ballad, he really showed us how sweetly the DV could be played. The rhythm section that night was organ, guitar and drums, and they were kind of loud. With no mics on the horns we had no problem at all hearing Jason. And that is on baritone sax, which is an instrument that can often get buried in a loud group.
